This work is part of the "Giving Birth in Exile" project, which explores the intimate lives of young or expectant mothers seeking asylum. These women experienced their pregnancies in fear of deportation. Adding to the anxiety of an uncertain future are daily struggles and traumas from the recent past. While their psychological stability is greatly affected, these women are extraordinarily resilient.
