Roads

Deutschland Frankreich 2017/2018 Spielfilm

Two extremely unlike young men meet in Morocco: 18-year-old Gyllen was supposed to be on a family vacation with his mother and stepfather, but then he decided to "borrow" the luxury RV of his parents and to take off on his own. William, who hails from Congo, is also 18 years old and tries to make the passage to Europe, where he hopes to find his missing brother. Together, the two go on a trip that will take them across half of Europe and will change their lives.
