Film details
“Number 387”
Directed by Madeleine Leroyer
A hoodie, a pair of trousers, a belt…all that is left of “Number 387”, one of 800 migrants who drowned off the Libyan coast on April 18th 2015. In Sicily, forensic scientist Cristina Cattaneo is conducting the largest identification operation ever undertaken in the Mediterranean. Far away, in small West African villages, ICRC anthropologist Jose Pablo Baraybar meets the families of the missing to gather as much ante-mortem information as he can. On both sides of the Mediterranean, our characters progressively come together in their search for missing identities.
*You may also be interested in joining "Sink without a trace", a roundtable discussion on migrant deaths at sea, organised by the University of Westminster on 27 February, as part of the Difference Festival.

Looking forward to seeing you all!
Best wishes,
Maja, Janina, Vikki and Marcia
