Business as Usual
“'When voluntary and involuntary migration juxtaposes each other'”
2023•45m•Released
Documentary
Following the dealings of Mauritanian fixers ferrying migrants by sea, this film shows the human cost of irregular migration in West Africa. Interrogating the role of fixers as facilitators of the voyage across the sea as well as the casualties that occur, this asks if they are very different from 16th century slave catchers.
