“This Jungo Life” takes us deep inside the lives of young refugees and asylum seekers from Sudan and South Sudan, living and sleeping rough on the streets of Morocco; forced to flee violence and instability in Libya, and unable to return home due to ongoing war and conflict. With unique and intimate access, we are given a glimpse into the human spirit and innate drive for survival, as they fight for a better life for themselves and the families they left behind.
