Jungle Alpha 2016

In Jungle Alpha, Kane reunites with a long lost childhood friend after hearing him by chance on a French radio station, speaking on a programme to mark Interntational Refugee Day. Both having emigrated from the same small village on the Senegalese-Mauritanian border, the film brings into focus the experience of living in the Calais Jungle as Alpha reveals to his friend the life he has built for himself in this new and sometimes difficult place.

This film is presented in partnership with LUX Scotland.
