La Voluntaria

Marisa (Carmen Machi), a recently retired doctor, decides to travel as a volunteer to a greek refugee camp where people need -or so she thinks- people like her. Upon her arrival, it is clear that she is nothing like the rest of the people there. When she meets young Ahmed, the limits between the need to take care of somebody and of feeling useful begin to fade.
