Summary

In Migrantes, Flaviano Bianchini walks in the shoes of an illegal immigrant, making his way from Guatemala to Arizona in 21 long days. Bianchini is “someone who, when they were handing out luck, got some of the best: an Italian EU passport.” He then became Aymar Blanco, one of the many migrants that dream of a different life, and embarks on a journey across Mexico.Two days in a prison, whereabouts unknown and an unclear number of attacks by criminal and “legal” gangs. And then the hunger, the cold, the heat, the thirst, the forest, the mountains, the desert, and a wall to climb, to tear down. But also the solidarity and friendship with an extraordinary people and fellow travelers that, just like him, are looking for the American dream.

Everything dances.” —Maya Angelou
