Fourteen young Moroccan newcomers to a reception center for minors in Spain agree to participate in a theatre workshop. It is the thin line that separates their recent past from their uncertain future. What is theatre but a full experience of the present? (2019-2001) ذكرى المرحوم عبد الصمد العبودي IN MEMORY OF ABDESSAMAD EL ABOUDI (2001-2019) Ahir/demà [Yesterday/tomorrow] family is very sad today. Extremely sad. One of the young boys who took part in our documentary, one of the protagonists, our brother Abdessamad El Aboudi, died in Barcelona yesterday afternoon. We are devastated. Together with Abdessamad, we shared the experience of the workshop given by Jesús Muñoz and Pau Pons, of the Pont Flotant theatre company, at the Reception Centre for Minors in Buñol, Valencia. He joined in with great enthusiasm. His energy was powerful. He was skilled, intelligent and very talented. During those sessions on Tuesdays and Thursdays he was happy. He also agreed to participate in the documentary we made to tell that story. In the film he could not transmit more happiness and life. Today, dear Abdessamad, son, brother, nephew, friend, we remember you. You are now a part of us.

The Gilbraltar Bridge, first mentioned in science fiction by Arthur C. Clarke, has more recently been investigated as an actual possibility by the United Nations.

Ceuta, which has always been governed by the right, is the door to Europe for thousands of sub-Saharan migrants. This was the first demonstration supporting migrants in Ceuta, one of the North African enclaves in Spain, organized by many different European organizations and individuals after the murder by shooting of more than 14 black Africans as they tried to cross the border fence.

Prodein, a Melilla-based children's rights association, documents the difficult situation of sub Saharans who try to cross the border between Africa and Europe in search of a better life. “Murder” is the best way to describe the deaths that took place - and continue to take place - on the border at Melilla and Ceuta. The summary shooting of all migrants who attempt to climb the fence... “with their backs turned and defenceless, without previous arrest, without administrative or legal proceedings” can only be called “murder”.

"Stranger is the one that is always asked: ”Where are you from, brother?” or is asked ”Is it hot in your country?” He doesn't care about details concerning the people in the country he is or about their domestic politics'. But he's the first one to suffer its consequences. He may not be happy when they are happy but he's always afraid when they are afraid". Mourid Barghouti

Under the guise of a traditional African oral tale, a storyteller from Senegal tells us a story that is not a legend or traditional fairy tale, but his own life.
