Liberian lives Tom Hanks Movie "The Terminal"

But in this case, the man doesn't do it voluntarily or for a movie. It is a guy, only identified as "A", who arrived in Korea in December last year from Liberia. Liberia, at the West coast of Africa, is in turmoil, or civil war.

The guy left Korea to Switzerland, when illegal foreign residents had to be reported voluntarily. He returned to Korea, after Switzerland refused entry. Scared that he might be send back to Liberia, he destroyed his passport, what made him stateless. The Korean authorities contacted Liberia for identification, but, being a country in the state of war, administration is probably worse than imaginable.

So he leaves in the airport. What a nightmare!
