from Popcorn and Plantain · host The Adugbo

Adú is a 2020 Spanish drama film directed by Salvador Calvo, written by Alejandro Hernández and starring Moustapha Oumarou, Luis Tosar and Álvaro Cervantes. The film premiered in Spain on 31 January 2020. The film intertwines three storylines related to African immigration to Europe. A six-year-old boy and his older sister desperately attempt to flee Cameroon for Europe, waiting on a runway to smuggle themselves inside an aeroplane's cargo hold. Not far away, an activist against illegal hunting discovers the terrible scene of a dead elephant, its tusks removed. In addition to fighting against illegal poaching, he has to face issues with his daughter, who recently arrived in the country. Thousands of miles to the north, in Melilla, a Spanish city in North Africa, a group of civil guards face a mass assault on the Melilla border fence by Africans desperate to gain access to Spain.
