The Westerners ('De Westerlingen' in Dutch) is a new investigating travel show of Dutch broadcasting company VPRO. During day and night, various TV hosts follow remarkable youngsters who take them into their world. A world that is no longer interested in western norms and values.

In the fourth episode of this series, I visit Lebanon to meet refugees who had left Europe after a cold welcome. What did they dislike about the west?
