Thousands of migrants land on Lampedusa, the Mediterranean island sinks into chaos. And no, this is not just an Italian problem.
Unfortunately, these special images and stories are always needed to attract attention. Even though everyday life deserves this constant attention. Now it is the Italian police officers who are trying to maintain order in the port of Lampedusa, where nothing is right anymore. The five-month-old child who falls into the water and drowns as the coast guard was trying to bring migrants from a boat to shore. The mayor who sends out a cry for help to the world and declares a state of emergency. The resident who turns around on the way to a festival and cooks spaghetti for ten people from Burkina Faso who are standing in front of his door and are hungry.
