Tips

Martha Pan

September 22, 2022

There is a deeply unnatural element in the barbed wire between the trees. As if even to the naked eye a sense of inopportune, unexpected, extraneousness was marked. Thought to stop the other, whoever he is, ends up being the other himself. A sort of natural corridor, between the mountains, that thousands of people, for years, have traveled along their journey on the Balkan Route from Bosnia Herzegovina to Slovenia. Only to be pushed back.
The police ascertained that all these people entered Slovenian territory illegally and were therefore deported to Croatia, which is where they came from. Meanwhile, elsewhere, others will try. Some call it The Game, a way of trying to make a mockery of one's own destiny. Barbed wire was born after 2015, when suddenly the hearts of politicians and the media opened for a short window of time. Then everything closed, imprisoning thousands of fleeing lives along the way. Today, however, we are witnessing a sort of theater of the absurd: the flows continue, no one talks or works on solutions, new walls are announced.
