What is happening along the borders of the EU, in reception centres, during hearings for asylum requests, before the ultimate trip to Europe? The Nimis Group, accompanied by asylum seekers, unleashes a saga where humour and frivolity help to highlight the depth of real absurd episodes.  As Europe sinks deeper into denial regarding the thousands of dead bodies piling up each year on the Italian, Spanish or Greek coasts, to what extent have European management and control of  'migratory flows" become important economic considerations?
