Locked and hidden in a truck, eight contemporary migrants from different regions try to survive the hunger and anguish of a long illegal journey across the borders. Gradually, in the darkness of the truck trailer, they get to know each other and share their life stories. But the stories they tell are not only their own journeys, but also personal stories from a century ago of European emigrants (Ukraine, Russia, Italy, Belgium). This film articulates many resonances between past and present migrations, revealing how historical amnesia is alive in our perception of migration.
