Seydou Sarr and Moustapha Fall, who bring to life the gripping tale of Io Capitano, illuminate the cover of Vestal magazine, their portrayal as profound as the Fendi designs they adorn.

On-screen, their characters navigate the difficult passage from the streets of Dakar to the European dream, a narrative enriched by the actors’ commitment to authenticity. Their roles—filled with the aspirations, struggles, and resilience of migrants—call for a renewed sense of empathy and a shift in the migrant discourse.

The actors’ accounts of their involvement in the film reveal a journey from uncertainty to a deep connection with their characters, mirroring the film’s advocacy for understanding and its resonant critical success.

While the profound narratives of Sarr and Fall take center stage, the visual storytelling is captured by photographer Kevin Sinclair with styling by Oretta Corbelli.
