1 01:04:59,480 --> 01:05:03,400 And you see the contrast 2 01:05:03,400 --> 01:05:05,679 the tragedy of 3 01:05:05,679 --> 01:05:09,639 These people who disembark sometimes dead, sometimes 4 01:05:09,639 --> 01:05:11,760 dead children 5 01:05:12,079 --> 01:05:13,840 in short, badly combined 6 01:05:15,119 --> 01:05:19,159 and then if you take a look carefully 7 01:05:19,280 --> 01:05:22,920 there are people having fun on the beach swimming 8 01:05:23,159 --> 01:05:27,320 10 01:05:37,039 --> 01:05:38,760 It smacks of drama to me 11 01:05:38,760 --> 01:05:40,039 then I don't know 12 01:07:51,440 --> 01:07:55,800 In a world that prefers to forget to move forward 13 01:07:56,320 --> 01:08:00,639 memory is often the only barrier 18 01:09:12,359 --> 01:09:15,600 waiting for the traffickers to give the way to go. 19 01:09:16,479 --> 01:09:20,439 These people locked in there they survive by cooking and other things 20 01:09:20,439 --> 01:09:24,520 and at some point within this a fire broke out in the shed 21 01:09:24,600 --> 01:09:27,359 a gas cylinder probably explodes 22 01:09:28,399 --> 01:09:33,640 which seriously injures a group of women 23 01:09:33,640 --> 01:09:37,199 who are badly burned very serious. 24 01:09:38,039 --> 01:09:40,760 01:10:05,479 financial police intercepts this dinghy. 31 01:10:06,520 --> 01:10:08,800 Contrary to what is usually the case happens 32 01:10:09,000 --> 01:10:10,800 That is, immediate rescue of these people 33 01:10:11,279 --> 01:10:15,159 the finance crew contact the commander at Lampedusa 34 01:10:15,279 --> 01:10:17,800 describing a situation dramatic because 35 01:10:17,800 --> 01:10:20,279 These women have bodies entirely burned 36 01:10:20,319 --> 01:10:24,840 So they have difficulties materially to pick them up and bring them to the port 37 01:10:24,840 --> 01:10:28,760 because they cause them further suffering. 38 01:10:29,000 --> 01:10:33,119 The commander reassures the men and the crew saying 39 01:10:33,279 --> 01:10:36,119 the important thing is that you bring them see you soon at Lampedusa 40 01:10:36,119 --> 01:10:40,680 so cover your ears, do that what you have to do, do it. 41 01:10:42,800 --> 01:10:47,760 The crewmen do it, they bring at the port these women 42 01:10:48,279 --> 01:10:52,319 plus the other 100 people, plus more 100 people on a dinghy. 43 01:10:53,199 --> 01:11:04,760 The captain goes to the dock and witnesses the disembarkation of the survivors essentially 44 01:11:05,399 --> 01:11:11,520 50 01:11:31,279 --> 01:11:34,760 absolutely secular, reading a poem, or the 51 01:11:34,760 --> 01:11:37,239 lyrics of a song, the song of a book and more. 52 01:11:38,520 --> 01:11:42,960 Sometimes we make videos of these ceremonies 53 01:11:42,960 --> 01:11:47,239 but not to publish them just to say if one day it were to happen 54 01:11:47,279 --> 01:11:52,680 59 01:12:22,960 --> 01:12:25,800 We have nothing that authorizes us to do all this. 60 01:12:26,479 --> 01:12:30,600 When we talk about ascertaining identity of a person 61 01:12:30,960 --> 01:12:33,439 we're not necessarily talking about either 62 01:12:33,439 --> 01:12:36,520 Exclusively about dignity of these people 63 01:12:36,680 --> 01:12:39,760 The problem is the story of these people. 64 01:12:41,079 --> 01:12:43,640 69 01:12:59,720 --> 01:13:02,399 There are lives that remain suspended due 70 01:13:02,399 --> 01:13:05,760 Simply about death not certified 71 01:13:07,800 --> 01:13:10,039 of their loved ones or their relatives. 72 01:13:10,319 --> 01:13:12,920 Here is the whole paradox of Western culture 73 01:13:13,279 --> 01:13:17,680 That is, the Western culture on which the his presumed, even moral, superiority 74 01:13:18,279 --> 01:13:20,479 so it recognizes theoretically that exist 75 01:13:20,479 --> 01:13:23,079 80 01:13:36,520 --> 01:13:39,920 84 01:14:10,680 --> 01:14:13,079 of the existence of these people 85 01:14:14,159 --> 01:14:16,199 90 01:14:29,600 --> 01:14:31,800 deny that they existed 91 01:14:32,359 --> 01:14:33,399 93 01:14:39,000 --> 01:14:42,000 they end well, not just that they end bad, stories of 94 01:14:42,399 --> 01:14:46,199 family reunions, of meeting places, of 95 01:14:46,199 --> 01:14:50,680 meetings, beautiful stories, they have all a common thread 96 01:14:50,920 --> 01:14:55,479 that is, that's what we ask for when we ask you to participate in this thing. 97 01:14:55,960 --> 01:14:58,039 Stories that say that being human is placed 98 01:14:58,039 --> 01:15:00,960 above any something else. 99 01:18:42,960 --> 01:18:47,119 We gathered in a commemoration this evening for 100 01:18:47,119 --> 01:18:51,520 remember another victim of injustice in the Mediterranean. 101 01:18:51,520 --> 01:18:58,000 It's a little girl, a newborn, of a month that she froze to death under thes 102 01:18:58,000 --> 01:19:01,279 his mother's eyes and his own little sister of a few years. 103 01:19:02,319 --> 01:19:08,560 But we know that she didn't just die of the cold she died of injustice, because the 104 01:19:08,560 --> 01:19:12,279 Policies in the Mediterranean mean that these people have no alternatives 105 01:19:12,279 --> 01:19:15,279 Safe and legal to be able to arrive in Europe. 106 01:19:16,319 --> 01:19:23,119 01:19:44,239 celebrate one more times freedom of movement. 112 01:19:50,760 --> 01:19:57,319 On the night of October 2011 there is a boat that is overloaded with people. 113 01:20:00,439 --> 01:20:04,359 The sea is very rough, very rough. 114 01:20:04,359 --> 01:20:06,479 The financial police rises to edge of the boat 115 01:20:06,479 --> 01:20:09,960 121 01:20:27,079 --> 01:20:31,560 around the boat that came continuously tossed on the rocks 122 01:20:31,560 --> 01:20:34,800 to prevent someone from falling into the sea and got lost. 123 01:20:35,439 --> 01:20:37,920 People literally came, especially thes 124 01:20:37,920 --> 01:20:40,359 very young children, newborns they literally came 125 01:20:40,439 --> 01:20:44,399 136 01:21:23,720 --> 01:21:25,840 participated in this operation rescue. 137 01:21:26,479 --> 01:21:30,479 The fact that this boat was packed of families with small children 138 01:21:30,640 --> 01:21:36,159 set in motion a mechanism of solitude, but the most joyful. 139 01:21:36,159 --> 01:21:38,199 There were small children from Lampedusa 140 01:21:38,199 --> 01:21:40,039 were found 147 01:21:56,840 --> 01:21:59,600 under the wreck i bodies of three people. 148 01:22:00,159 --> 01:22:00,960 Lifeless 149 01:22:50,920 --> 01:22:54,560 Lampedusa is a place 150 01:22:54,560 --> 01:22:57,159 very intense, very 151 01:22:57,159 --> 01:23:00,119 Very intense, both in one extreme than in the other. 152 01:23:03,560 --> 01:23:05,399 A place where 153 01:23:06,039 --> 01:23:09,439 154 01:23:10,039 --> 01:23:12,199 and at the same time it seems to me everything is so clear. 155 01:23:16,000 --> 01:23:17,520 militarized 156 01:23:18,079 --> 01:23:20,000 touristed 157 01:23:21,960 --> 01:23:23,159 these two realities 158 01:23:23,359 --> 01:23:24,399 it seems 159 01:23:25,079 --> 01:23:27,680 coexist 174 01:24:25,560 --> 01:24:28,199 to a life, to a situation 175 01:24:30,199 --> 01:24:32,680 which is absurd, It's not normal at all. 176 01:24:34,000 --> 01:24:38,720 These were my thoughts in the last days 177 01:24:38,880 --> 01:24:40,720 a continuous contradiction 178 01:24:41,159 --> 01:24:43,600 that I hear in the area 179 01:24:44,039 --> 01:24:46,640 01:25:07,520 the impression that Lampedusa gave me.
