暂无Corrado, a policeman for the European task force in charge of immigration control, is on a field assignment in Libya. During a night patrol in the desert, he meets Swada, a young Somaliwoman who left her war-ravaged country.
An insanely well-done film about a complex situation about transnational migration: it involves discussions on the extent of individual agency against "the order of things," on the hypocrisy of EU wanting to be liberal and defend human rights and the nation-states wanting to fortify its borders and not caring about the lives suffering outside its borders, on the criminalization of humanitarian assistance efforts, and on the paradigm of refugee protection. The acting is also brilliant, and the script balances well between difficult policy-talks and engaging narratives.
