We often talk about the dangers of crossing the desert and the Mediterranean. But what we are talking about the least is what happens once the migrants arrive at their destination. In this place called 5 Stars, Malians, Senegalese, Guineans, and others, find themselves trapped in their dreams. Then starts a new fight!
