During the Arab Spring, the Tunisian Nazir and his pregnant Dutch wife Kimmy are forced to flee. The Netherlands refuses access to Nazir, so Kimmy has no choice but to depart for the Netherlands on her own. Nazir, who is adamant about witnessing his child's birth, ventures the crossing of the Mediterranean Sea on one of the many rickety boats. As soon as he gets ashore at Lampedusa, he is incarcerated as an illegal refugee. Heavily pregnant, Kimmy leaves for Italy, determined to get Nazir out. A suspenseful story about borders and bureaucracy, dreams, willpower and love that cannot be curbed. (Cinemax)

Since by coincidence, I’ve seen a film similar to this one – Charmer – right before watching Rafael, I suspected from the start the Tunisian only got together with the girl to be able to leave Tunisia. This was enhanced by the Arab Spring background, and the at times crazy naivety of the Western world didn’t help matters. During the movie, however, I abandoned my hypothesis and got pulled into the story. It’s not exactly a happy one, but in this day and age it’s ideal for being turned into a movie and showing the African refugees in a slightly different light.
