Abstract
A leitmotiv in contemporary migration procedures, soliciting asylum seekers to “tell the truth” seems to automatically open up the possibility to get international protection, thus generating hope and expectations. Acknowledging the complex nature of the refugee status determination procedure, and the intertwinement between conflicting requests this system produces - i.e. to say the truth and to produce a “credible” narrative - I focus on instances of rejection where issues like vulnerability and provenance played a decisive role, in order to articulate the many aspects which affect the outcome of the procedure, regardless of the truth of the story.
