This critically acclaimed documentary follows Rafael Larraenza, who has spent over 25 years searching for and rescuing people lost while crossing the U.S.-Mexico border. Forty years after making the journey himself, he returned to the desert to save others. Despite physical decline, opposition, and limited resources, he remains determined. When a mother from El Salvador asks for help finding her son, Rafael races against time. ‘Desert Angel’ reveals the human cost of migration and the compassion of one man who refuses to look away.

Desert Angel / Eftersøgning og redning af migranter
Tuesday April 14th 19:30 - 21:30
 
Denne anmelderroste dokumentar følger Rafael Larraenza, der i mere end 25 år har ledt efter og reddet mennesker, som forsvinder under den farefulde færd over grænsen mellem USA og Mexico. 40 år efter selv at have krydset ørkenen vendte han tilbage for at hjælpe andre. Trods fysiske skader og modstand fortsætter han sit arbejde med sparsomme midler og fast beslutsomhed. Da en mor fra El Salvador beder om hjælp til at finde sin søn, indleder han en eftersøgning, hvor hvert minut kan være afgørende. ‘Desert Angel’ viser både migrationens menneskelige omkostninger og en ekstraordinær medfølelse hos en mand, der nægter at vende blikket bort.
