The migrants come with big goals and half-chances in this heartfelt tale set in modern-day Calais. Bilal (Firat Ayverdi) is a Kurdish teenager who wants to reach England and play in the ­Premier League, and only needs to swim the Channel to make these dreams come true. Vincent Lindon plays the ­hangdog local swimming instructor who ­observes his toiling training ­sessions with a mounting ­concern that becomes ­contagious. Phillippe Lioret's drama turns heavy-handed at the end. What keeps it afloat are the sharp ­performances, together with a pungent, ­docu-style portrait of the dockyards where the bundled, shivering immigrants stand waiting for a lorry to hop, or a train to cling on to. Most, we suspect, are not going to make it.
