series New Voices in Black Cinema
Directed by Jonas Carpignano | 2015
With Koudous Seihon, Alassane Sy, Paolo Sciarretta
This heartrending drama charts the desperate journey of Ayiva (Seihon) and Abas (Sy), two friends who risk everything to make the dangerous voyage from their native Burkina Faso to Italy in search of work. But rather than opportunity, the men find racism and hostility on the margins of a society that doesn’t want them. Told with vivid naturalism, Mediterranea is a laudably unsentimental, sobering look at the refugee experience.
