The Crossing

No help will come..

Gill Wilkes is a British freelance journalist, an experienced war correspondent who has covered numerous armed conflicts around the world, escaping death several times. Based in Tangier, Morocco, she is doing a report on migrants trying to reach Europe. To escape with her life after meeting a smuggler, she is forced to board an old fishing boat with a ferryman and some twenty African refugees. This brutal event is an unexpected opportunity to record their stories, their dreams and their hopes.

The passengers of the ‘Souleiman IV’ have faced many dangers to get so close to Europe, that promised land. During the crossing, they will face one more, as something deadly rises from the depths.
