Special Flight

Overview

Switzerland conducts controversial special flights where deported individuals, often dressed in diapers and helmets, endure up to 40 hours chained to their seats, accompanied by law enforcement. Many of these passengers are returning to countries they haven't seen in decades, facing potential danger upon arrival. Leaving behind families and jobs, they face a grim reality. Meanwhile, 25 undocumented immigrants at Frambois prison await deportation, given a chance to bid farewell to loved ones before a standard flight. Those who decline this option are swiftly placed on the dreaded special flight, revealing deeply moving personal stories behind their confinement.
