In a letter, a Saharan refugee relates his vision of conflict in the hope that the voices of thousands of people, abandoned by the international community and suffering injustice, may be heard.

We are the Saharawis

This film explores the lives of a refugee community; the Saharawis. Expelled from their homeland in the 1970s, they were condemned to live as refugees in one of the harshest corners of the Algerian desert. 30 years later, they are still waiting for their fate to be decided.
