| Summary: | A group of thirty men (and one female stowaway) in a wooden fishing pirogue named the Goor Fitt, who don't all speak the same language, hailing from different ethnic and religious backgrounds and some of whom have never seen the sea, attempt a treacherous illegal crossing from Senegal to Spain where they believe better lives and prospects are waiting for them.
