In the Mediterranean, the paths of people hoping for a new future cross with the sea rescuers of the "Ocean Viking". Director and photographer Jean-Baptiste Bonnet accompanies their moving journey for six weeks. With haunting images, he shows the patient vigilance of the crew, the tension of each rescue and the moments of hope when the ship finally reaches a European port. But it is above all the voices of those rescued that are moving - their stories of escape, loss and longing for safety. Bonnet's camera captures this special place between danger and hope in calm, impressive images - a timeless space at the gates of Europe.
