Senegal – Crossing the vast Atlantic Ocean (Episode 1)
Tales from the Border begins in Senegal. We look out across thousands of kilometers of Atlantic Ocean. As the waves crash, migrants who have tried and returned, and those who still have hope, talk about what it is like to dream of a better life in the Canary Islands and Spain.
Feel the fear after 10 days drifting in a pirogue on the Atlantic Ocean and passing ghost ships full of bodies, wondering if you will ever make it to land.
Even after arriving, the tales of poverty and hardship make some wonder whether the dream was worth it.
