Synopsis: Bilal is 17 years old, a Kurdish boy from Iraq. He sets off on an adventure-filled journey across Europe. He wants to get to England to see his love who lives there. Bilal finally reaches Calais, but how do you cover 32 kilometers of the English Channel when you can't swim? The boy soon discovers that his trip won't be as easy as he imagined... The community of struggling illegal aliens in Calais is captured with authenticity, from the point of view of people who arrived there knowing nothing about France. This immigrant drama, with wonderful performances by the actors, is a strong story which uses documentary austerity and minimalist style to create a great emotional impact.

If he wants to marry her, he will.

It is so.

To get to this one.

And to impress her father.

It's an antique ring.

Very nice.

She'll like it.

We must no longer see us, Simon.

No more.

There seems to be a good environment

in your building! Come.

I have good news for you.

We fished her son!

This is a recent adoption, no?

How is he?

As a guy who

with the boy, if you

understand what I mean!

We will arrest him, Mr. Calmato.

By helping illegal immigrants.

And trafficking in human beings,

what is even worse.

very active, no?

Stop it, it has nothing

to do with it, moreover,

And divorced two days ago.

His neighbor saw them

in your home together.

For months I asked to

involve volunteers

Mr. Calmato do not give me peace.

And now, thanks to you, I'll get them.
