A special report from Chris Haslam in a hostel for new arrivals to Germany, in the Kopernick district of eastern Berlin. He meets one Syrian family who have just arrived there after "40 days in the European wilderness", fleeing war at home and making their way riskily - and expensively - via the Mediterranean Sea and the Balkans. They've made it to safety - yet Chris finds they have the look of people who've only just realised their journey is by no means over. Without family connections, cash or social status, is it likely that their aspirations for their children will be realised? And in the short term, how will they make it through this winter?
