What would you do if you were stuck in a desert behind a monstrous glass wall, while on the other side no one could see or hear you?
The tale of a teenage refugee who must relive the pain of his past to enter an enchanting city waiting behind the glass wall. Will his story be convincing enough to guarantee his safety?
A story of struggle and persecution but abundant in hope, The Glass Wall is a clear-eyed, emotionally-honest account of displaced people – illustrating the true hardship that refugees experience.
