Gabriele Del Grande
A century in motion
Until 1914, visas and passports did not exist. People boarded and disembarked from transatlantic ships without documents or passes. Today, the Mediterranean seabed is littered with the fish-eaten bodies of fifty thousand migrants who drowned along smuggling routes. How did we come to this ingratitude towards humanity? And more importantly, how will we overcome it? Gabriele Del Grande revisits the history of migration towards Europe and its gradual criminalization through an exclusive selection of photos and archival videos from the 20th century. The result is a captivating journey of images and words that reveals the present from a new perspective and show us the future with a visionary proposal. Duration: 95 minutes.
