O.V in Arabic, Italian, French and Spanishh subtitled in Spanish

Always interested in highlighting the cruelest and most invisible mechanisms of power, Isaías Griñolo looks at the drift of this Europe that has turned the Mediterranean into a battlefield, and in which nationalist and xenophobic discourses fueled by false ideas about migrants proliferate. An eclectic group of activists walk through some of these tragic Mediterranean scenarios and, while doing so, denounce the European Union's border policy. A film essay based on the idea of travel and the performative practices resulting from walking, and facing our fears as Europeans, a look into our shadowed self.
