Feature film 76' | Spain, France, Qatar 2023
After crossing the Melilla fence from Morocco, Ihsane enters the “Divina Infantita” nuns’ reception centre, where Assia and Nuhaila live. Hamza turns 18 and has to leave La Purísima, the reception centre for unaccompanied boys. They all arrived alone in Melilla but have found a new family: the NANA dance company. After months of hard work, they are selected to participate in a famous TV talent show, where they experience a mirage that seems to take them away from their reality for a few days and that vanishes in a flash when the spotlight goes out.
