Adú Synopsis

In a desperate attempt to reach Europe and crouched before an airstrip in Cameroon, a six-year-old boy and his older sister wait to sneak into the holds of an airplane. Not too far away, an environmental activist contemplates the terrible image of an elephant, dead and fangless. Not only do you have to fight against poaching, but you will also have to meet the problems of your newly arrived daughter from Spain. Thousands of kilometers to the north, in Melilla, a group of civil guards prepare to face the furious crowd of sub-Saharan people who have begun the assault on the fence. Three stories linked by a central theme, in which none of its protagonists know that their destinies are doomed to cross and that their lives will no longer be the same.

5/10

I hate to downgrade it because it is an adequate film that was easy to sit through, and a subject worthy of treatment. I only gave it 5/10 because it just seemed like nothing original here. Other films have executed intersecting stories so much better. I have the vague feeling the script is just ideas lifted from other movies, and pasted together in a weak attempt to make something for festivals.
