Password: Ventimiglia2020
Bucare il confine. Storie dalla frontiera di Ventimiglia (Mondadori 2020) is an oral history book by Gabriele Proglio. Spending several months on the Italo-French border, Proglio collected many interviews with migrant people, Italian and French citizens in Ventimiglia (ITA) and Menton (FRA), activists, NGOs and associations. The aim of this volume is to propose to the reader a gaze on the border as a device involved in many typologies of crossings, migrations and mobilities. Ventimiglia is an internal European border. At the same time, it is a relevant passage to reach France and other destinations in Europe after dangerous journeys across the Mediterranean and along the Balkan Route.
