Alek

Do you know what struck us the most when we met Alek? Not only does Alek avoid being approached, but he also avoids eye contact...

If he could tell us the story about who left all those scars on his heart, we would probably cry for days. Whatever that may have been, it must have been hard and it has left a big trace. With all those fears, Alek also suffers from physical pain. His ears bleed, his skin is in a very bad condition and he is too thin.

They say that those who have suffered trauma must feel safe in order to heal. Alek is urgently looking for his safe haven, the one who will teach him that there is a cure for sadness too and that the world – if we look at it with eyes wide open – is beautiful after all.
