- Synopsis:
Every day Italian coastguard, Marshal Serra (Claudio Amendola), patrols the dangerous waters between Italy and Libya searching for 'sea wrecks', the lethally overcrowded boats that carry refugees and migrants fleeing their homelands. Their first port of call is often Lampedusa, the tiny Italian-controlled island where Viola (Carolina Crescentini), a young woman who runs the immigrants' reception centre, battles a constant stream of emotional crisis and medical emergencies. Serra and Viola have their own troubled histories, but they forge a close bond both through their shared humanity and their involvement with Dhaki, a young Egyptian boy whose mother is missing. Despite Lampedusa's big heart, the inevitable pressures imposed by this huge human influx provokes hostility among the native population - until a major distress call forces the islanders to put aside their differences and unite their forces for an urgent rescue mission. - Actors:
