“Tenere” by Hasan Söylemez |Tenere tells the true story of African people who set out from Agadez, Niger, crossing the desert to reach Libya and Europe. In the film, we witness the arduous journey of Bachir from Agadez and his companions in a truck resembling Noah's ark. We see how they struggle both physically and emotionally with harsh natural conditions, thirst and many other problems.
