Ep. 01 | The Decision

By Cecilia Gragnani | In the shadow of Brexit, the first episode of LONDON EXPAT explores the reasons why many European citizens decided to venture to London in search of fortune, their expectations and desires, the drive to leave as well as the first impact when arriving in the city. It will be London itself, through the welcoming but yet unforgiving voice of a drag queen (performed by Jonny Woo), that will welcome Cecilia and her friends into their new home, sharing wisdom on how to survive and navigate the chaos and the shimmering lights of the English bubble. Through the testimonies and contributions of citizens from all over Europe we tell the story of what drives them to leave and why more than 3 million Europeans have been choosing London for decades.
