THE LUCKY ONES?
​

​Voids replace those killed by violent acts; children surrounded by chaos and destruction, many alone, but alive; survivors from overcrowded boats, many saved from drowning by passing ships; families, orphans, survivors, crammed into camps with no certainty as to when, if ever, they will be rehomed or able to return to their native lands; two lonely people on the other side of the fence; have they succeeded in their quest to seek refuge in a foreign land, or are they us, watching this tragedy unfold?
Who are the lucky ones?
