Driving along a country road, documentary photographer Paolo Patrizi noticed that scantily clad women are an integral element of the local landscape. He decided to take a picture and tell about what he saw: about an improvised camp where women from Nigeria who came to Italy to work work. See the photo report, which was awarded the prestigious World Press Photo award.
The photographer believes that there is a need to talk about such people, about those who find themselves on the outskirts of society.
According to various estimates, from 10 to 20 thousand Nigerian prostitutes are currently working in Italy. The industry was born back in the 1980s - illegal immigrants from Nigeria came to work in Italian tomato fields.
When the farms were closed and they had no work left, they began to earn money by criminal means — by supplying drugs and prostitutes to the country. The costs of moving to Italy for future prostitutes reach up to 60 thousand euros. Nigerian prostitutes receive negligibly little — sometimes 10 euros per client.
The eerie improvised atmosphere in the "sex" camps leaves a clear feeling that economic and social crises worsen the state of everyday life for a huge circle of people in many parts of the world, and that global elites in these crises cannot provide at least some solutions in the near future.
