Written By Roberta Stanco

In the summer of 2015, 1 million people seek refuge in Europe. 40,000 make it to Switzerland, 10 are assigned by the canton of Aargau to the wealthy municipality of Oberwil-Lieli. But Andreas Glarner, mayor of the village and SVP candidate for the National Council, wants to make an example. He refuses to take in refugees in his village. Johanna Gündel, student and daughter of a local vegetable farmer, is organising resistance to this no-politics with IG Solidarität.
