COMO EL VIENTO

Synopsis

During the ferry crossing from Morocco to Spain, three storylines intertwine, linked to the characters' fear of loss and love for one another. The Moroccan, Spanish and Dutch characters strive to connect to their loved ones, however their helplessness leaves room for the inevitable. Fear of loss shapes their destinies. As the boat docks in Spain, the drama unfolds as the characters come face to face with the consequences of their actions.
