Every house starts with a solid cornerstone. Just like Into The Great Wide Open needs those building blocks to bring the festival to life. In The Cornerstones, we follow the people whose work is essential for the festival. We settle down with our newcomer guide, Faie.

Once, Faie came as a newcomer from an asylum seekers center to the festival to work as a volunteer. Now, a few years later, he has a residence permit and helps other asylum seekers find their way on Vlieland. With his experience and enthusiasm, he ensures that newcomers settle in comfortably on the island and evolve into an indispensable part of Into The Great Wide Open.
