Is the illegal immigrant movie true?

If it refers to the French film Illegal Entry in 2009, the plot of the film belongs to fiction.

This is the director's statement after the filming. He wants to emphasize the plight of immigrants living in Calais, France, and their plans to arrive in Britain through these contents, so as to get more help from the French government for them.

Even if it is tolerant, it is also a film of "three points true and seven points false", which fabricates touching stories with real background events. Moreover, this film involves manipulating and inciting public opinion. See the following details:

200 1 It is reported internationally that more than 900 Kurdish stowaways in southeastern France were shipwrecked. This is the beginning of France's concern for these refugees.

Calais mentioned in the film is a port city in northern France. The place where Kurdish refugees are placed here is Sangat refugee camp.

As mentioned in the follow-up report, most of these Kurdish refugees in Sangat refugee camp expect to sneak into Britain through the English Channel Tunnel. This is also the only intention of 17-year-old boy bilal's failed smuggling.

Bilal's intention to swim across the English Channel mentioned in the film is untrue. Bilal and his English girlfriend Mina belong to fictional characters and plots. Including swimming coach Simon, there is no such person.

The real intention of the film is that after the film was broadcast, the French immigration minister had a heated debate with the film director on the immigration issue in the French TV discussion program. During the debate, the director tried to amend the French law with the help of the film (watched by 780 thousand people in three weeks), that is, to reduce the prison terms of those who had helped refugees.

In the film craze that followed, some members proposed a motion to legalize "assisting illegal immigrants", that is, to abolish "délit de solidarité". However, including the opinions of the above directors, and this bill failed to pass. Subsequently, the popularity of the film gradually subsided (the last report was as of early February 2009, 65438).
