They tell us about the war, their escape to Italy, and their present difficulties.

Director's Notes
«The idea behind this video is to give those seeking asylum the opportunity to tell people about their difficulties, launch a cry for help and make known their conditions, which are unlike those of many other immigrants. During the interviews we purposely kept our intervention to a bare minimum to allow them to express themselves freely without any form of conditioning».
