Moving immigrant story. About friendship, love, and the difficult journey of leaving one life behind and arriving in a new one. Epic, emotional, and rich in quiet humanity. Early 1990s. 27-year-old Nour comes from Morocco and lives as an illegal immigrant in France. Together with a few friends, he manages as a petty criminal. Despite all the hardships, they do not let themselves be defeated and enjoy their life full of excess and parties. But then, as it must, one day the friends are apprehended by the police. However, with help from an entirely unexpected side, Nour receives a second chance. ›Across the Sea‹ follows its main character for about ten years, thus depicting an entire era. The film incredibly multifacetedly tells of love and lust in all its forms as well as the immense personal burden of migration. For Nour, it even becomes an existential threat. Yet in the end, we are left with the hope that love can save him. A film of great humanity. Saïd Hamich Benlarbi is a graduate of the famous Paris film school La Femis. As a producer of numerous French-Moroccan films, he has already been represented at many international festivals. His directorial debut ›Retour á Bollène‹ was awarded multiple times. ›Across the Sea‹ is his second feature film.
