The Ben Youssef family migrates every year from the desert-like landscape of Nkob to the green pastures of Igourdane. Εach summer, the family embarks on a formidable journey of resilience on foot. A sensorial ethnographic film on the incredible movement and (im)mobilities of the family and their herd, it juxtaposes the hopes and constraints, obligations and sacrifices of a Moroccan family that oscillates between tradition and the need to adapt to modern life.
