The whisper of the sand
Awserd refugee camp, Tindouf. Fatma has not seen her brother for 30 years, since they parted after the Moroccan invasion of Western Sahara. Now he is coming on a United Nations flight to stay for a few days. While Fatma and her family prepare for the visit, they describe their life in the worst corner of the Algerian desert. Meanwhile, human rights activists in the Sahara itself are persecuted by the Moroccan authorities. Leading figures and specialists in the subject set out their theories for securing a fair solution to this conflict, which has already continued for too long.
