A refugees camp near Rosarno in South Italy. It was thinking ,from the italian government, for 300 people but in the winter's mounths is invade by over than 1500 people. They pick oranges earning 20 euros a day. The living conditions have become intolerable due to lack of funds for the management of the place. About 70 women from Nigeria were arrived in the camp, six months ago, and for survive they should to sell them body. My work witnesses this place between 2015-2016, and a field where the workers pick orange and a protest in San Ferdinando after the kill of Sekine Traore, a guy from Mali 27 years old, killed by a police man, in June 2016.
