The immigrant in this documentary is not only seen as the "product" that meets a need, but primarily as the "object" of the cruel exploitation of his or her labor power. Immigrants are used as expendable in order to maximize profit without being granted even basic labor and human rights. Indeed, they are treated as virtually "invisible" around us. The anxiety for a better future and the difficulties of living and integrating are simultaneously outlined, in addition to the evolving racism that exists in most cases. On the other hand, these very conditions give birth to the solidarity, anger and fighting spirit necessary to defend their rights. Written by Fotis Michalopoulos See less
