Smiles of the Desert is a documentary that captures the essence of Sahrawi children's summer experience in the Basque Country through the Vacations in Peace project. It's a fascinating look at their daily lives, filled with small joys and new discoveries. The pacing is gentle, allowing you to soak in the atmosphere of both the children’s innocent laughter and the poignant backdrop of their lives back home. The film's structure, splitting the focus between their carefree moments and the deeper implications of their situation, makes it distinctive. The performances of the children, so genuine in their curiosity and joy, create a heartfelt connection that lingers beyond the screen. A worthwhile exploration of cultural exchange, resilience, and the power of solidarity.
