Now numbering 100,000, the refugees have been living on aid rations in tent cities for decades. They waged a 16 year guerrilla war in which thousands died. In 1991 the UN brokered a cease-fire on the promise of a referendum within six months. The Moroccan government has stalled ever since. A new deadline was set: the year 2000. The Saharawi feel cheated. If the referendum does not happen, they are adamant: "We are prepared to sacrifice everything, even ourselves". We travel with the Saharawi from the desert camps to London, and to the front line, teeming with land mines. Will yet a UN failure lead to war? Or will the Saharawi dreams of returning home finally come true this year?
