Synopsis

Murmuration invites us to meet Kanope, a young Nigerian on his way to Europe. In a clever tale between fable and dream, Kanope reaches out to us and draws us into his hopeful journey. Inspired by real-life stories, the narrative is told by young migrants who arrived in Sicily between 2015 and 2022. A striking dive into humanity.
