  MEMeNTO    
If you had to suddenly leave your country -- abandon your life and perhaps never see your loved ones again -- what's the one thing you would take? In this documentary produced for the BBC World Service, Vera Frankl listens to the stories of four political refugees about why they had to flee their homelands, and what precious memento they brought with them.  
FIRST HALF

A man from Guinea in West Africa was driven out of his country against his will; another is a refugee from Afghanistan. The circumstances of each man's exodus are unique, but they both cherish a memento that reminds them of the lives they had to abandon.
SECOND HALF






Vera Frankl speaks with Fungayi Mabhunu, an exile from Zimbabwe, and Gloria, an asylum seeker from Uganda, about the tangible objects they hold on to help them through their traumatic life changes.
