30,000 people from Eastern Europe work in the fields of Swiss farmers. Kamil W., 62, from Poland, is one of them. But he's invisible. You don't see him on billboards, where Swiss farmers are picking tomatoes and the sun is shining. He hasn't been seen in Seeland either in the thirteen years since Kamil started helping a farmer with the harvest: 55 hours a week for 3,300 francs a month.
