Les Routes de l'impossible Season 19 Nigeria, when life dreams of elsewhere 2025
8.4/10 by 5 users
In the rainforest, hundreds of trucks circulate and intersect, threatening to overturn with their loads of wood or gas on the country's most perilous route. But these aren't the only dangers awaiting Nigerian drivers. Every year, the country experiences thousands of kidnappings by armed gangs. In Lagos, the capital, 300,000 residents cram into their "floating Venice": a vast shantytown on stilts with its own rules and its own king. As soon as they leave the lagoon, the residents find themselves plunged into traffic hell. Elsewhere, thousands of pilgrims converge on a sacred forest to seek the protection of the goddess Osun.
