An “important and unsettling documentary” (la Repubblica) that Amnesty International used in 2012 as part of its campaign and petition against the Italian government, urging for an end to so-called “push-back operations” and for new immigration policies. From 2009 to 2010, over 2,000 African refugees were intercepted in the Mediterranean Sea and sent back to Libya by the Italian navy and police. When war broke out in Libya, thousands of African migrants fled, including the refugees who had been pushed back by the Italians, seeking refuge in a Tunisian camp. Their stories, recorded by Stefano Liberti and Andrea Segre, expose the violence and violations committed against defenceless and innocent people, for which Italy was condemned by the European Convention on Human Rights. The film offers examples of failed sharing and opens a discussion on an extremely topical issue, namely borders and the importance of immigration and multiculturalism.
