‘Where Turtles Fly’ is a third-person indie game capturing the story of a young refugee boy who has fallen over the side of a boat. He washes up on the shore of a city that doesn’t want him, and with just a phone, his only connection to his loved ones he begins a journey to find a new home.
Created from 3D scans of Beirut, a city with the highest rate of refugees in the world relatively to its population, the young boy travels between fantasy and reality, traversing a surreal urban landscape of surveillance drones, watch towers and monsters of trash.
