The Drifters
Synopsis
A love story about identity and place in a post Brexit Europe. Koffee, an African migrant, and Fanny, a French waitress are two lost souls who attempt to find home in one another and escape the labels that inevitably leave them homeless. True freedom is never by permission. To love who you want, to live where you will, to be who you are, is to finally be free.
