Synopsis
In the spirit of solidarity and commitment to the cause of the Frente Polisario--the Saharan Arabian Democratic Republic's fight for a land they consider theirs after having been occupied first by Spain and then by Morocco--comes the story of a young Saharan living in Paris who goes back to the desert to visit his people and attend a family celebration.
