when solidarity creates a bond stronger than blood

Rose, Florence e Mary came back to Nigerian after a migration experience in Europe. They worked on the steets of Italy, Spain and France as prostitutes but their journey ended with a deportation. In Nigeria the family don't accept them anymore and try to force them to emigrate a second time. The three girls refuse to travel again, deciding to take care each other and finally becoming "sisters".

An half hour documentary film portraing the toughness of getting a second chance. Despite the aid given by the Onlus Tampep through the Alnima cooperation project, the tree girls involved in the documentary shooting they could hardly get back to a daily normal life, neither come through their past bad migration experience by starting a new business by wich endure.
