A powerful and intimate film following the stories of migrants in Calais as they attempt to make it across the Channel to Britain. Filmed over a year in 'The Jungle', Calais.
They’ve been described as ‘cockroaches’ a ‘swarm’ and a tidal wave’. This film uncovers the human stories behind the headlines, and takes us on a risky, contentious and potentially life-changing journey through the eyes of the people making it.
