Young Moroccan fugitives trying to find a truck where they could hide between the wheels in the port of Tanger, Morocco.
Young Moroccan fugitives trying to find a truck where they could hide themselves between the wheels and enter illegaly to the port of Tanger, Morocco, 17 June 2007. Every day tens of Moroccan young men try to cross ilegally the Strait of Gibraltar. “Haraga” (immigrants in Arabic) come to Tanger from all over Morocco. They try their good luck and hidden between the wheels of a truck they attempt to board on a ferry and get to Spain, eventually further to Europe. Considering the thorough checks at the port only few of them make it. Therefore they spend months living on a beach, in huts along the walls of the port, begging for food and waiting for the right night so as their dream about Europe came true.
