Des rêves persistants
( Persisting Dreams )

Côme Ledésert
2015 - 25 min - HD - Couleur - Allemagne

Toni is a fisherman in Lampedusa. He sees men, women and children traveling from another continent. Who are these migrants arriving by sea on an island at the entry door of Europe, leaving it as soon as they can if they didn’t die before on their paths?
Through Toni’s testimony, intercut by animation that underlines his role of obliged witness, this documentary invites us to question our perception of migrants in Europe – between our tenacious fantasies, Toni’s reality and their persisting dreams.
