The Green Blood

Andrea SegreItaly57 min2010

Synopsis

Green Blood tells the stories of those who fought in the 2010 Rosarno protests, which exposed the inhumane exploitation of thousands of African laborers in Southern Italy. Victims of mafia violence and intolerable living conditions, these workers found the courage to rebel after years of silence. Through firsthand accounts and historical reconstructions, the documentary exposes a deeply rooted system of injustice and restores dignity to those who fought to change their fate.
