La Citadelle Europe plot

It's impossible to get a job in Benin if you don't have connections, Jonas and Roland say. They are both over 25, have no job and no bank account. Then it's time to expand your horizons. The boys dream of Europe. There, beyond an endless desert and a stretch of dangerous water, it must be heaven on earth. One day, Jonas and Roland say goodbye to their family and leave for the north. They have 250 euros in their pocket. It's a risky venture, but the boys see it as a rite of initiation. Whoever reaches Europe is a man. By bus, truck and all-terrain vehicle, Jonas and Roland travel deep into the Algerian desert...
