Nathalie Adler, a French politician and EU representative in Sicily, is on a mission to show the European Union's leadership in handling the crisis of migration. She organizes a visit to a migrant camp where she hopes to demonstrate the EU's resolve by having President Macron and Chancellor Merkel join her. However, this visit comes with significant symbolic value as it showcases that everything is under control.
Despite this, Nathalie's son Albert, an NGO activist, arrives at the camp without warning. This unexpected presence raises questions about Albert's motivations and whether he still believes in his mother or the EU's efforts to address the crisis.
As the situation unfolds, tensions rise between Nathalie and Albert, who no longer trusts his mother or the EU's actions. The visit becomes more complicated when Albert begins to question the effectiveness of the EU's policies and whether they are actually working to solve the root causes of the crisis.
In the end, Nathalie's decision to continue with the visit despite Albert's objections highlights the challenges faced by those on the front lines of the crisis. As she prepares for the visit, she must navigate the complexities of her relationship with her son and the broader political landscape in Sicily.
