I left one of my daughters in the cemetery of Tripoli. She is still there. So says an Italian woman – or rather, a “Taliana”, as the Lybians used to call Italian colonizers. Italians who lived in Lybia to pursue the colonial greed of Mussolini, chasing the dream of a new America, which they never found and eventually lost forever in 1970, when Khaddafi brought Lybia back to Lybians. This documentary is a journey into the memory – from the concentration camps to the testimony of Italians and Lybians still plagued by their memories. A journey into a story which is yet to be told in its entirety – a story in which victims and executioners are often difficult to tell one from the other. An attempt to investigate a forced cohabitation – of which not everything was evil what comes out. Archive footage from 1911 – yesterday’s Lybia and today’s Lybia. The story of a past which is still there today, a past which can help to understand what’s really going on, today, between the West and the Islamic countries.
