They'll Be Crossing Tonight

The story

»There was a period in Gorizia, my hometown, where every night many migrants continued to pass through. Dozens would arrive each night, only to be swallowed up by the big cities by morning. For some time, a very ugly thought had been stuck in my mind. So, I imagined a woman, perhaps elderly, one like others, one of those who see, or who stand and watch. One who noticed them. Noticed their passing beneath her window. A story devoid of psychological intricacies to launch a challenge to the indifference and thoughts of many ‘normal’ people who hide and spy on humanity from within their own kitchens.« Matteo Oleotto
