Running Home Documentary.

Inma (24) is determined to win a marathon in the Sahara Desert. But her motives run deeper than the physical challenge. A few months ago, she learned the birthplace of her biological mother: Laayoune, Western Sahara. Having never heard of the country, she decides to train for an international race that takes place nearby, in the Sahrawi refugee camps in Algeria. There, she will meet Sahrawis who share her mother’s history of fleeing war and surviving occupation.
