Basamortuko Irribarreak
Watch Smiles of the desert Online Free on Watchseries. Sahrawi children move to Basque country in summer thanks to the solidarity project Vacations in Peace. In the first part of the documentary, we see how they live, what they discover, what they learn and how these children enjoy themselves during their stay. The second part of the documentary takes place in the refugee camps in the desert which have held refugees for more than 30 years. We see their day-to-day life and, in passing, the reasons for the conflict and the Sahrawi struggle.
