Widows of the Sea plot

'Widows of the Sea' tells the story of the town of Tianrui sur Mer, a coastal city of Senegal that lost hundreds of its young men at sea. We follow one of the Senegalese communities most affected by illegal migration. The tidal wave of migration towards Europe peaked between 2005 and 2008 and has been making a strong comeback since the start of the corona pandemic. The lives of the families of the missing people from Tianrui sur Mer, who for a long time lived on the products of the sea and shipping, are turned upside down.
