A place in the world

The Boy in the Modern Striped Pajamas, a story of friendship and tolerance with the drama of war as a backdrop.
September 2015. After crossing the Aegean Sea fleeing a life of suffering in Syria and losing his father, Ahmed, a 14-year-old Syrian boy without a passport, decides to escape from the refugee camp in Brussels for fear of being deported. With nowhere to go, no food, no clothes, and no acquaintances, he decides to hide in the cellar of a large house.
What he doesn't know is that Max, a 13-year-old American boy who has moved with his family to Brussels, lives there. When Max discovers Ahmed, he decides to keep the secret and little by little they will embark on an epic story where they will have to make moral decisions and personal risks, in the context of a Europe marked by jihadist attacks, the refugee crisis and the fear of the other, especially Muslims.
A story about sacrifice, friendship, courage, heroism and tolerance.
