Human Smugglers

For the first-time human smugglers, will reveal - on camera and unmasked - the secrets of their trade. Does that sound too good to be true? We offer a real picture of the industry that has brought millions of migrants to Europe. When European politicians promise to put an end to the uncontrolled and illegal influx, this is the force they are up against. The film offers an astonishing insight to how one of the largest travel agencies in the World – human smugglers - operate. Offering tailor-made travel arrangements to individuals and groups according to their financial potential or producing false documents, working together, competing, networking and mingling as in other industries, only here under the pressure of being illegal. We also witness the relentless fight to get smugglers behind bars personated by an Italian prosecutor who believes the smugglers are all the same. He - and authorities around Europe - has waged a war against the human smugglers, but what are their chances of success? We offer a unique dive into the business of human smuggling presented by the men that run it. It gives us the chance to open doors that have been closed for years and see the whole debate from a quite new angle.
