Ibi photographed and filmed her life in Italy for 10 years. This film is the result of her images, her creativity, and her energy. For the first time in Europe, a film based entirely on the direct and spontaneous self-narrative of a migrant woman, who tells her children in Africa about herself and her Europe. An intense and intimate journey into the difficult, lively, and colorful world of a still unknown visual artist.

Since 2003 Italy and Europe have asked Libya to stop the African migrants. What are the Libyan police really doing? What do thousands of African men and women suffer? And why does everybody pretend they do not know about it?

On an internal EU border – the one between Italy and Slovenia, a few kilometers from Trieste, migrants who manage to cross the border risk being stopped by Italian law enforcement. The stories of migrants who have experienced refoulements and readmissions are interwoven with the videos recorded by the migrants themselves on their smartphones during their long journeys, as well as with the increasingly contradictory responses of the institutions.

2013 film directed by Andrea Segre
