distant voices from over the sea 

Songs and the testimony of the Saharawi people in the actuality of their exile.

For over thirty years the Saharawi people have been living in the Nigerian desert, struggling to be recognized and regain their land that had been appropriated by Morocco.Through traditional songs and images of life in the desert, the film gives voice to a people who, with dignity and determination, are only asking to exist and return to their homelands by the sea.
