FILM SYNOPSIS
Passage tells the story of a family whose path crosses with greedy human smugglers on their dangerous journey to freedom.
Musa and his family are subjected to police brutality after waiting a couple of weeks for borders to open. War-weary immigrants face another war here and they turn their faces to illegal ways, to the boats.
After they arrive at the shore, there is one final obstacle between them and the freedom; they have to make an agreement with smugglers to be able to find a place on the boats.
