05 Naef, Katrin, Maran, Zina & Manal

Naef, Katrin, Maran, Zina and Manal. 28 years old, 18 months, 9 years old, 26 years old and 7 years old. Iraqi Yezidis. | Naef and her family were living in Sinjar, a province in northern Iraq, when the Islamic state group took control of the region in August 2014 and massacred part of the population. The family first took refuge in the Duhok camp, north of Mosul, before heading to Europe. Their five-year-old son Karam was able to reach Germany with his grandmother. But with the closure of Europe’s internal borders, Naef, Zina, and their three daughters are now stuck in Katsikas camp in Greece. Maran wants her little brother and grandmother whom she hasn’t seen in over a year. She misses everything: her friends, school, “and the food is bad in the camp.” | Katsikas camp - Greece. 2016
