THE JOURNEY – The English Channel is one of the world’s busiest shipping routes, with risks collisions with large ships, strong currents, and high waves.
Without help navigations signals, migrants face emergencies alone. Weak engines in overloaded boat, make control nearly impossible.
Extreme cold, wind, and waves soak the overcrowded boat, worsening conditions. Migrants, including women and children, sit cramped with little room to move. They pray, cry, and hold hands, striving to stay together in the face of disaster.
