This investigative documentary exposes the harrowing consequences of a European migration strategy that funds security forces in North Africa, leading to refugees being abducted and left unprotected in the desert – a brutal practice that has affected thousands of people to date and caused dozens of deaths. Drawing on over a year of research by renowned international media partners, the film reveals, for the first time, exclusive footage captured at great risk, showing how EU partners such as Tunisia and Morocco are ruthlessly taking action against migrants. The documentary confronts European Union policymakers with the research and explores alternative approaches for a less deadly migration policy.
