Olha's Italian Diary

An intimate sneak-peek into a contemporary taboo topic: intimate lives of the female migrants away from home. Olha is a migrant care worker in Naples, whose life could fill up a few telenovelas. And yet, it is so similar to the lives of many Ukrainian women in Italy. Will Olha be able to give Naples a chance and find a true feeling among the routines of her transnational life? The full-length film is based on a short documentary film of the same title by the same director, which was filmed as part of the Verzio Film Festival's DocLab workshop in 2016.
