Rafiki

Rafiki

Julie, Mette and Naisha are best friends and classmates. They live in a small village in a valley in Norway. It’s almost Christmas and the days at school are filled with snowball fighting and rehearsing for the Christmas play.

One day Naisha and her mother suddenly disappear. It turns out their refugee application has been rejected, and they will be sent back home – if the police find them.
Julie and Mette decide to find Naisha and her mother and help them. With a secret address as their only clue, Julie and Mette sneak off on the night train to the city. The problem is that Julie’s dad is a policeman; that Julie and Mette are only nine years old and that Oslo is a very long way from home.

Will they be able to get their best friend back?
