For many migrants Italy was never their ultimate goal. In the third and final episode of Via Genua, we meet Driss, a Tunisian who wants to travel northwards hoping to find a country where he gets a fair chance. Driss left Tunisia with a friend on his fishing boat because the girl he loved and wanted to marry cancelled their wedding: her father had found a richer husband for her. Driss wore his wedding suit when he left: he wanted to make a beautiful entrance in Europe.
It is a crisis in Italy. Everyone feels that, Italian and non-Italian. Ilja learns from people in Via di Prè who came to live a long time ago in this economically dead city. What are you going to do? Should you stay, or should you leave?
Meanwhile, new refugees arrive in Genoa, and their families back in Africa are full of high expectations for them. Are they going to make it?

In this VPRO travel series Via Genoa, writer Ilja Leonard Pfeijffer speaks with the colorful inhabitants of his hometown, the Italian port city of Genoa. Pfeiffer shows how Italy changes politically, socially and economically with all the newcomers.
Director: Hans Pool
Presented by: Ilja Leonard Pfeijffer
