THOSE WHO JUMP (LES SAUTEURS)

THOSE WHO JUMP (LES SAUTEURS)

NYC PREMIERE From the producers of The Act of Killing and The Look of Silence comes this inside look at the experiences of African migrants desperately trying to reach Europe. Abou left Mali over a year ago and has made it as far as Mount Gurugu in northern Morocco, tantalizingly just outside the fortified Spanish enclave of Melilla. Given a camera by the directors, Abou finds his voice as he captures the daily reality of living in limbo in a makeshift camp while plotting the next attempt to reach Spain.
