Description

To escape oppression and a past that haunts her, Shewit flees Eritrea at great personal risk. At the age of 15, after being captured by human traffickers in Libya, she finally arrives in Switzerland, a country in which she places all her hopes. But seven years later, she still does not have a residence permit, and her fate continues to depend on the decision of the authorities... As a migrant on probation, facing deportation, Shewit does not give up and continues to fight to realize her dream: to become a free woman. A struggle for her emancipation, documented over ten years under the empathetic gaze of filmmaker Anne-Frédérique Widmann. In the presence of the film team.
