In the multiple award winning "Exodus" Samura traveled to Nigeria, Mali, The Sahara, Morocco and Spain as he followed African exiles in their attempt to make their way to the 'promised land' of Europe.

BBC NEWS: "With immigration being the subject of much political point-scoring in Europe at the moment, Exodus presents Western audiences with the human faces behind the hysteria."

The film saw Samura meet some of those trying to make the journey and follows their progress, whilst hearing of the hardships compelling them to leave their native lands.
