CGiii Comment

"How would you survive in a society that does not recognize your existence?"

Reva and her son Loei have still not been granted asylum after six years in Sweden. Reva and Loei have become "Undocumented Immigrants" leaving them with no rights and a life outside society. It appears as though they live a perfectly normal life. They dress nicely, speak Swedish well, and socialize among others. But the truth is that their reality is quite different from what it seems.
