Synopsis
A group of six African men and one woman set out for Europe, a place they idealize.
During the clandestine journey that takes them from the Senegal River to the Strait of Gibraltar, a feeling of solidarity mixed with defiance develops between them.
However, after confronting all sorts of dangers, the group breaks apart as it nears Tangiers, the final stop before crossing to Spain.
This cavalcade across borders is the chronicle of one of mankind’s last great adventures.
