Tenere tells the unknown story of African people who set out from Agadez, Niger, crossing the desert to reach Libya and Europe. We follow the journey of Bachir and his companions in a truck resembling Noah’s Ark, witnessing how they struggle both physically and emotionally.
Although the Sahara desert is devoid of any sandworms, it is full of challenges manifesting the immense, almost mythological power of nature. Shot verité style on the thorny migration routes of Niger, Hasan Söylemez’s Tenere is a visually ravishing, daring story of endurance and human fragility.
