About this ebook

Whereas public opinion is focused on the landing of the migrants that cross Mediterranean sea in order to reach the Southern coasts of Italy, in the North of the Country, a thousand kilometres far from there, thousands of “invisibles” of the Balkan route cross the border through Trieste’s woods to silently reach other European destinations. This flow is constantly increasing, and it is testified by this unreleased reportage and by the expose that inspired it. A journey through nameless and desperate stories and their delicate international backgrounds. “Away from the media clamour, says the Italian director Mauro Caputo, thousands of people cross the Italian border, not too far from where I live, throwing away all their belongings, even their identities. There was the need to understand and tell this phenomenon, a moral and human necessity I could not back out of. Because we must not forget that all around the world, a person over 97 is escaping”.
