On Sunday, June 10th 2018, the Government denied entrance to the ship Aquarius of the fleet of the NGO ‘Doctors Without Borders’ approaching an Italian harbour. On board there were 629 immigrants, among which 123 unaccompanied minors, 11 children, 7 pregnant women. In that precise moment, 629 were also the representatives of the Italian Republic: a strange numeric coincidence between men that decide and others that have no rights; that is where this project starts from. More than twenty authors from three different Countries – Spain, Greece and Italy – have decided to confront and start a voyage through difference, overpassing the violent hatred that Europe has lately come to know.
