Film about immigration?

Years ago I was a film about an African (Somalian, I think) who walks across north Africa. Many follow him and they end up in Morocco, to cross the strait of Gibraltar. They are thousands and Europe fear their arrival. The USA even send negociators to no avail. One day, thousands of Africans cross the strait, to die on the beaches of Spain, killed by the police/army.

I have googled that film that I think has a name like "the long march" but to no avail. Does anyone know this film?

Update:

Sorry, I meant: "I saw" and not "I was"
