Daydreamers (2023)
When the US embassy opens the green card lottery visa, Assad writes hundreds of stories about imaginary families running away from the war and submits them. When one of the stories is accepted, Kamal, a repatriated Somali-American, helps him to find the right characters for the embassy interviews. The two have sent hundreds of fake families to the US but now their scam is about to be discovered.
Directors: Vincenzo Cavallo, Mahad Ahmed.
