Stolen Dreams: The Brutal Cost of the Journey to Europe | Investigate Africa

Migrants: A Deadly Journey To Europe | Investigate Africa A powerful documentary reveals the brutal reality faced by African migrants on their journey to Europe: from Agadez in Niger across the Sahara, through Libyan torture camps, and across the deadly Mediterranean Sea. Migrants speak of violence, extortion, rape, and exploitation. Women are forced into prostitution, children die in the desert or at sea. Despite EU border policies, criminal networks continue to thrive. Returnees are often traumatized, yet many still cling to the dream of Europe — hoping for a better life, no matter the cost. This documentary is from 2018. The situation for migrants and the conditions they face remain the same while a 59% decrease of people seeking asylum through this Mediterranean Route as of June 2025 has been recorded. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Subscribe Investigate Africa for free: Facebook: https://bit.ly/2QfRxbG Instagram:   / endevrdocs   ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ #FreeDocumentary #InvestigateAfrica #migrants #refugees ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Welcome to Investigate Africa – Explore the vast and diverse continent of Africa through in-depth documentaries that examine its politics, economy, culture, and history.
