"I’m still. My stomach is empty. I’m going to die tonight, maybe tomorrow. I’m exhausted. I’m alone." So begins the story of Victor Eock, a Cameroonian migrant who crosses Africa to come to Europe, a 22-month journey. Now living in Marseille, he wanted to tell his story to journalist Nicolas Balu. Of his poverty on his route from Melilla, of the corruption in his home country under the reign of people traffickers, he tells it all, openly, sending a message to both continents. An authentic and poignant account.
