With delicate cinematography and excellent realization, this film illustrates the life in the Sahrawi refugee camps in the Algerian desert. With ingenuity and perseverance, armed with technical knowledge, three women, Teslem, Dehba and Jadija, create a fish farm that produces fresh fish miles away from the sea. In the middle of the desert, far away from their own land, they do the impossible to stay alive in exile. They no longer have the sea, but they do have fish.
