A troubled, painful, heroic trip, that often meets with death. To cross the Mediterranean Sea means to rewrite a new Odyssey. It is the story of men, women and children who rely on providence even before fate, on a small boat, in the quest to find not an artificial well-being but rather to conquer a “dignified poverty”, an elementary concept, which we Westerners have forgotten.
