Herwonnen vrijheid

The countries in Central Asia are trying to develop their own identity after almost a hundred years of occupation by Russia. Can that legacy be erased? Young Kyrgyz people consciously choose again for the nomadic existence, which they had been forced to give up under the domination of the Soviet Union. Jelle Brandt Corstius sleeps with them in a traditional yurt. Ruben Terlou speaks Kazakhs who were in the notorious re-education camps in China. Most people think of those camps as Uyghurs, but other Muslim minorities are also sent there to turn them into a kind of Chinese model citizens.

Tikkende tijdbom

Centraal-Azië kent eindeloze vlaktes, valleien en steppen, maar ook een aantal van de hoogste bergen ter wereld. Zo heeft Pakistan ruim 7000 gletsjers; er is geen land waar er meer zijn. Het zijn tikkende tijdbommen. Door de steeds hogere temperaturen smelten de gletsjers sneller dan ooit. Ruben Terlou is in het noorden waar overstromingen regelmatig hele dorpen wegvagen. In de provincie Sindh, de voedselkamer van Pakistan, ziet hij hoe verwoestend de gevolgen van de overstromingen zijn voor de miljoenen mensen die er wonen.
