Synopsis:
"REplace" is a documentary about African migrants coming to Europe—if they make it. Sven Jense reversed their route, traveling in the opposite direction from Amsterdam to Mali, West Africa. On his way he meets with different migrants, from a mother with her child in Paris to a construction engineer who never made it to Europe.
Central questions are: What are Africans looking for in Europe? Who are those people? Why do they keep risking their lives? Why don't they just return now that economic crisis has hit? What good does a European migration center deep down in Africa do? Can the victims of the sea and desert journeys be considered as collateral damage of European border policies?
These questions are put before the people who might know answers: migrants themselves. Beautiful images of ever-changing landscapes challenge the viewer to put her or himself in the shoes of the migrants, feel their hope, despair, and curiosity, not withstanding the often giant differences in welfare, culture, and skin color.
