Cartas mojadas

Sinopsis

Documentary. Thousands of people have crossed the Mediterranean these years trying to reach Europe. Cartas Mojadas tells, through a mysterious voice from the bottom of the sea, the most tragic epic of our contemporary history. Following written letters, from mothers to children, the voice accompanies NGO ship Open Arms, in its most dramatic mission, fighting to save 550 people from the shipwreck. Forgetting that this is a true story, the situation worsens when the film takes us aboard a Libyan coast guard ship and moves us to the most dangerous place in the world, in Libya, where human beings are abused and enslaved.
