Synopsis

After crossing the Melilla border fence from Morocco, Ihsen enters the Divina Infantita nuns' reception centre for unaccompanied minors. Meanwhile, Hamza turns 18 and has to leave La Purísima, the reception centre for boys. They all arrived in Melilla alone, but have now found a new family: the Nana dance company. After hard work, they are selected to compete in the television programme Got Talent, where they live a mirage that vanishes when the spotlights go out.
