Synopsis
With different versions Moussa (Djédjé Apali) is a young man from Burkina Faso. He lives
in the village where he was born, with his parents, his family and
his wife, Fatima. But he prefers to call her ‘Bamako’ because it
was there, in the capital of Mali, that he met her – before getting
married and having their baby, Mamadou. The land gives them just
enough to live on, but this precarious balance is now threatened
by a prolonged drought. Driven by his responsibility towards his
family, and after asking the opinion of the village elders, Moussa
decides to go and find work in Europe. We will accompany him on
his journey, and on our way gather testimony from those who went
before, and who now, at each resting place and bend in the way,
recount their experiences, the means they used to travel to Spain
and what they encountered on reaching their destination.

Dixie is a 13-year-old girl, unhappy with her life: five years ago, her
mother divorced from her father, a coroner. In her school, she is
considered a weird girl due to her gothic aspect. One night, Dixie
suffers an accident when a tree crashes against her during a storm.
She wakes up later in the middle of a cemetery, turned in a zombie.

parece odiarla... Así que en un arrebato de desesperación, la joven
huye durante una noche de tormenta sufriendo un accidente, que
la sumergirá en una inesperada realidad, de un inquietante Mundo…
