Return to Hansala

A boat carrying a group of illegal immigrants sinks, leaving a dozen dead bodies lying on a Spanish beach. Martín -a man nearing his forties and the father of a twelve-year-old girl- has recently separated from his wife. He runs a funeral parlour in Algeciras and is beset by numerous economic and legal problems. After receiving a call from the Guardia Civil, he drives to the scene of the tragedy and, while collecting the dead bodies, he notices that one of them has a tight Ust gripping a scrap of paper. The latter contains a telephone number. Back in his ofUce, Martin calls that number and is answered at the other end of the line by Leila, a Morroccan woman who works at the wholesale food market in Málaga. Both Martin and Leila will embark together in an unexpected journey.
