This movie makes me so emotional!
My feelings were all over the place! That was something 👍🏿
"…we studied in the book, we saw it on television, Europe is a country of human rights, where you can make your dreams come true…"
bitter illusion
True life story
🙏🙏🙏🙏
This is so unfair for Italians.
People are paying attention. That is why they are voting for parties that want to reduce illegal immigration and human trafficking
Europeans have dreams too.
Everyone who votes for pro-illegal immigration policies is responsible for migrant deaths in the sea. Stop encouraging illegal migration.
I hope this encourages West Africans to not make this trip.
BAFFOONS 😅
We have no room in Italy. Stop promoting illegal migration.
Please somebody talk for him. It is not like reciting a script lines
Amazing. This should be shown in every school in Europe
I saw the movie yesterday. I would have loved to have heard the stories of several of the other migrants caught up in this experience. We were able to understand the two teenagers rationale for making this trip. However, we were left in the dark regarding the others' calculations a rationales.
Watch also "Tolo Tolo" of italian director Checco Zalone. The same story, in popular grotesque comedy wat. It sent the same message but spread to millions of people that will never watch "Io capitano"
Those people are the richer people of their country. Because only them have the funds to pay their illegal way to Europe.
The top 10 countrie with highest economic growth are located in Africa. Stay there and work. We don`t want you to come here uninvited, illegally and sponging off our tax money.- Work for a living in your country. Don`t go to where you aren`t wanted and invited. Then nobody will die in the desert or drown. It can be so easy.
The director should take a load of these men into his home and let them play with his wife, kids and grandkids. Livestream it so we can see how it is going. And ev4eryone who wants these ppl to brute their way illegally into EU should do the same. Adopt them and pay for all their expenses from your pocket. Livestream, so we can see how it is going for for you.
There is no human right to brute one´s way illegally into a country and to demand the citizens of that country will pay their way through life. There is also no human right to get a visa for a country which avgIQ is way higher and where there is no need for ppl from countries with avg low IQ who will not beable to find jobs and earn a living.
Its not only from west africa but also from horn of africa
How many more children will starve to death and how many more killed and wounded in Gaza. The war mongers do nothing to stop their insanity.
People in N.Y. and Texas should watch this specifically so they can understand poverty and the life-risking immigrants go through. We often talk about humanity yet when we watch the news and see immigrants a lot of people don't like them.
Oscar Nominated movie promoting mass crime … such insane nonsense …

54 African countries! Many with incredible potential for those who want to work! Italy needs to remain Italian and should protect their country like Poland does…
The movie promotes rift between black and arabs.. This is the work of Zionist
Brilliant
Can't wait to see this movie looks incredible to see what immigrants go thru
dude's eye scarification is super rad!
Africa needs to stop making so many babies. I don't feel sorry for them until they take responsibility for this huge problem.
Eye opening interview and film. We ALL deserve to seek new opportunities for a better life.
incredible
The news commentators here and others continually ignore the growing slave trade in Sudan, Libya,Nigeria,Mauritania, Tunisia and its influence on adjacent countries.

Gaddafi on flooding Europe with blacks
"We don't know what will happen, what will be the reaction of the white and Christian Europeans faced with this influx of starving and ignorant Africans," Col Gaddafi said.
"We don't know if Europe will remain an advanced and united continent or if it will be destroyed, as happened with the barbarian invasions."
Unfortunately, the journalist was not very thorough or intentionally omitted the fact that the USA, with NATO destroyed the Libyan nation state in 2011 under the so called self proclaimed 'Right to Intervene' under false pretexts and this led to the destruction of the country and the infernal situation described in the interview. This is a veritable shame that the west can claim as a legacy. Since the destruction of the Libyan nation state, the country has been plunged in caos, and split up in territories controlled by warlords and also by religious fundamental extremists. The black African communities are targeted and forced into slave labour or killed. NATO attempted this in Syria as well.
So, is the movie going to highlight the fact that the migrants seem to be young fighting age men, and when they land in europe do nothing but become parasitic leeches on the systems taking money giving to them by the democratic governments by doing nothing, being spoiled brats and brutalizing the European populace, raping abd pillaging the towns and village of Europe who have no say in this invasion?
Thank you all. Great interview. It breaks my heart that mankind is so cruel to one ano. No one should ever suffer like this. I look forward to watching the film.
This movie does a great job at exposing the horrible truth about the struggle of African migrants. It shows the inhumane treatment of African migrants by those who claim to be human. The migrants have shown their humanity by their solidarity for one another. Two million European illegal immigrants get to show up in South Africa while Europe is refusing African migrants entry to their country. Somebody please make that make sense.🤔🤬🤬🤬😤😤😤😡😡😡🤨
Can’t wait to watch the movie. So many lies on social media…
I hope my fellow countryman Garrone not only wins the Oscar, but most lmportant is that people can see all over the world this powerful message of humanity!
I’m definitely going to watch this movie, and the trailer was amazing as shocking as the journey they went through to get to. God bless them for all the lives lost and the lives saved.
