It all starts in a fishing village on the outskirts of Dakar, where many boats set sail for Europe. After a crossing that often brings death, the boats arrive in the Canary Islands. Baye Laye, captain of a fishing boat, is well acquainted with the risks of the sea and does not want to go, but he has no alternative. He has to venture out in a boat to Spain, along with thirty other people who don’t get on, some of whom have never seen the sea, and none of whom knows what lies ahead.
