Teghadez Agadez

Directed by Morgane Wirtz

In Agadez, at the gates of the Sahara, migrants on their way to Europe cross paths with those who are fleeing Libya or who have been expelled from Algeria. The filmmaker follows them for several days, as well as a smuggler, André, who earned his living for more than twenty years by organising the transport of migrants between Agadez, in Niger, and Sabha, in Libya. The migrants talk about their hopes, their dreams, the difficulties of the travel. Sometimes they play, cook or dance. They are still human.
