WALLAH – je te jure trailer from marcello merletto on Vimeo.
“Wallah Je te jure” is a documentary filmed in 2016 in Niger, directed by Marcello Merletto and produced by the International Organization for Migration. It tells the stories of men and women travelling along West African migration routes to Italy. Senegal‘s rural villages, Niger’s bus stations and “ghettos” full of traffickers, Italian squares and houses are the backdrops of these courageous trips, which often end in tragedy. No matter the cost, the goal to reach Europe will be achieved, “Wallah.” But there are those who, tired from the journey, turn back home.
