l'accoglienza selvaggia-4 : Sottoripa e la rivolta dei commercianti

A 6-PART WEB SERIES (directed by Claudio Bernieri - original music by Luciano D'Addetta) The Savage Welcome: The Invasion of Illegal Immigrants in Genoa But is it really integration? A camera delves into the soft underbelly of Genoa, the medieval porticoes of Sottoripa, the thieves' markets, the drug addicts of the Old Port in front of the bars of the Pakistani underworld, the degradation to which 50 years of incompetent administrations have left the Superba. Here we are among the living mummies of Sottoripa at night, the shrouds and sheets where the desperate sleep... If This Is a Man, Primo Levi would say... three hours of a merciless docufilm shot by Milanese videographer Claudio Bernieri, former war correspondent for the legendary Europeo and now engaged... in this strange contemporary war. A war declared by smugglers, NGOs, and foreign states against our cities. Desperate people, asylum seekers, vagrants, refugees, lifelong tourists, illegal immigrants: they arrive on rubber dinghies. They aren't fleeing war, but bringing war to us. They are hurled onto our shores. Human bullets used to destabilize Italy: desperate people then used by criminal organizations to deal and sell counterfeit brands, victims of exploitation by cooperatives, unwitting instruments of a new system for financing political parties. A wind of legality is now blowing in Genoa... here is the story of the revolt of shopkeepers and citizens against this savage, demagogic, and immoral welcome.
