The night is pitch-black, the sea stormy. Wild waves break on a little boat full of refugees, where a girl laments that she does not want to go to Europe. Suddenly an old man falls overboard. In vain he tries to grab the saving hands. Colored lightning flashes over a busy city seen from above. From that point on, the drowned man sees reality from another dimension. Unconventional and poetic in form, Those Who Feel the Fire Burning documents a serious social problem: the hopeless situation of the refugees who actually manage to make the crossing alive.
Director
Morgan graduated from the Netherlands Film Academy in 2012 with the experimental documentary A Twist in the Fabric of Space. This film was selected for the IDFA Student Competition and awarded with the VPRO Documentary Award 2012 and a Netherlands Film Fund wildcard.
