Karim

Karim, a 13-year-old boy from Syria, has just moved to the Netherlands and is finding it difficult to get used to his new life in Makkum. He often thinks about his home in Syria, where his best friend Laith lives. To feel close to his old life, he learns to play the Oud, an instrument he likes very much. His mother tries to help him feel more at home by encouraging him to practice Dutch and make new friends. Will Karim be able to combine his memories of home with his new life in the Netherlands?
