A Somali migrant seeks refuge in the underground of a building near the Swiss-Italian border. A popular song from his country awakens in him the desire to leave.

Un migrante somalo cerca rifugio nei sotterranei di una palazzina nelle vicinanze della frontiera tra Svizzera e Italia. Una canzone popolare risveglia in lui la volontà di tornare nel suo paese d'origine.
