Effi Weiss, Amir Borenstein

Chance

Effi Weiss, Amir Borenstein

At a motorway rest-area, somewhere in Belgium, four young Sudanese sneak into a truck in the hope of reaching the next day the other side of the Channel. Condensed in this dark and cut off huis-clos, they spend the coming hours waiting, in a mixture of hope and fear, just like their clandestine existence.
