Benedicta is a survivor of human trafficking from Nigeria, Mohamed left Guinea at sixteen in the hope of a less precarious life, Martha and Anibal fled political repression in Honduras. Fate led them to a small French town and its surrounding countryside, where they are now pursuing the same goal: to find their place in local society. The film tells the story of their daily lives, filled with obstacles and uncertainty, between hope and disappointment, solidarity and small triumphs.
