Calais-Douvres, l’exil sans fin
Every year, thousands risk their lives to illegally reach England on rubber dinghies from Calais. It is a perilous crossing, at the mercy of smugglers, on the dangerous waters of the English Channel. Women, men, and children from Syria, Iran, and Sudan. Director Julien Goudichaud spent seven years walking the beaches of Calais, documenting what was happening there and talking to migrants and those who manage the trafficking. He ended up making the crossing himself, camera in hand, with the exiles, to understand and show what it means.
