Synopsis:

Bailo, Egbal, Anas, David, Sophia, Hervé, Chérif and a few others have three things in common: they fled their native countries (Guinea, Sudan, Nigeria, The Democratic Republic of the Congo) where they were in danger; they passed through the detention and torture camps of Libya; they now find themselves in Conques, a French village in Occitania. They are hosted there by the association Limbo, which offers them a period of resilience. Unable to heal from their trauma by talking the young migrants are given an original opportunity to express their pains and get back on their feet: by writing and performing songs.
