About this movie
Werner combines two extremely different theatres of flight and misery: the mountainscape near Oujda where refugees from the Algerian War cross the border to Morocco for safety and respite, and Hong Kong, which was dealing with hundreds and hundreds of thousands escaping the famine caused by Máo’s Great-Leap-Forward policy.
