Contents Summary
In April 2006, 13,000 members of the Dajo ethnic group have taken refuge on the plain of Gouroukoun in eastern Chad. They are all survivors of the Darfur conflict. Secluded in the camp they have constructed, they create their own way of life and means of survival. The filmmaker joins the refugees in this prison without walls, capturing everyday life as it is gradually re-embraced. A hint of war seeps into every image, into every moment: it is sensed ready to reawaken behind the nearby hills, in the stories told by refugees, children sketch it in their drawings, in the songs of battle crooned by little girls.
