"Helvetia" is a documentary series by SRF that focuses on the experiences of Swiss citizens with immigrant heritage. The show explores their backgrounds and how they navigate their identities growing up between two cultures. In this episode, we meet Sinisha Lüscher, a 17-year-old wrestler who shares his experience of growing up Afro-descent in Switzerland.
