Gurba, the Condemned (Gurba, la condena)

Siya, Dumaha, Mata and Aziz are Saharawi refugees living in the camps near Tindouf, in the Algerian desert. In Gurba, the Condemned they show what four decades of exile mean in everyday life.

Spanish director Miguel Ángel Tobías looks at realities that rarely reach the outside world: torture survivors, landmine victims and people maimed by the war, child malnutrition and mental illness among a people condemned to live far from their homeland.

The filmmaker made the documentary as a solidarity project and used its screenings to raise funds and supplies for the camps.
