The Romanians Are Coming

With numbers of immigrants rising and laws changing regarding the possibility of work, this three-part documentary follows the lives of a group of Romanians trying to make a fresh start in the UK.

Part 2:

A look at the reality of life in Romania and the motivation behind the influx of immigrants in the UK. Mihalia is a nurse who lives with her husband, daughter and elderly mother. She's hoping that moving overseas will allow her to improve her life and help her family. In London, Alex has his first full-time job working in a warehouse, but his wages aren't enough to cover rent and he's still sleeping on the streets. To make matters worse, his companion Christian has been checked into hospital with TB. Adi makes £30 a day at a car wash, but he sends so much of his money back to his wife and child that he has slept rough under a bridge for six years.
