From DW Documentary.

The same spectacle every summer: Hundreds of thousands of vehicles leaving Spain, headed for Morocco. In the summer of 2024, many of the travelers were migrants. Living in Europe, vacationing in their home country. But what does "home” really mean?

The term "home” is becoming increasingly complicated. More and more people are blending different identities. People who belong to migrant groups increasing live out this "multiple identity,” as people who feel they have more than one "home”.
How does this identity work? What do people experience when they leave their homes in Spain every summer, to visit their homes in Morocco? In 2024, 3.4 million people crossed the strait from Algeciras to Tangier. The ferries transported over 800,000 vehicles in the three summer months – a record.
This road movie accompanies some of these people on their journey, arrival, and as they spend their summer in their country of origin. The caravan serves as a kind of bridge between homes. Older people tend to long for their homeland, while younger ones often find it difficult to reconcile their new world with their roots.
