Synopsis

Locked up and hidden in a truck, eight contemporary migrants from various countries try to survive the hunger and anguish of a long illegal journey across borders. Little by little, in the darkness of the lorry trailer, they get to know each other and share their life stories.

This fictional documentary was created through a collaborative process with contemporary migrants who embody and take ownership of stories of European emigration from the past, intertwining them with their own migration experiences. A poetic and political film where autobiographical accounts, archives, and dreams from the past and present blend together to evoke a sensory and epic experience.
