An Italian village in Burkina Faso - vpro Metropolis
Vložit
- čas přidán 10. 06. 2015
- In the middle of the dusty Burkina Faso is the village Béguédo. This village is also called little Italy. Most residents of this village have lived in Italy or have family living there. In the local restaurants you can order a delicious plate of spaghetti!
vpro Metropolis was a video project by Dutch broadcast organisation vpro, that ran from 2008 to 2015. Metropolis is made by a global collective of young filmmakers and TV producers, reporting on remarkable stories from their own country/city. We made a trip around the globe on one single issue: from local beauty ideals to Elvis impersonators, to what's it like being gay, or an outcast or a dog in different cultures.

Hello everyone.
If you are interested in discovering the life of African migrants in Italy, you can check out our other series from 2017 called Via Genoa: czcams.com/video/PzoP42GQG6o/video.html
VPRO Metropolis
Dear, i am interested in where the 440 billions euros earned by France through their all around african colony end.
I am interested in how the propaganda pro de Gaulle, pro France affe c t s african education, and how great infrastructures are NOT created to better enslave africans.
I am Also interested in how a french Coin which has no value could have been used in Africa and why, same for the governors which usually are neither africans.
tu sia solo scrivere puttanate su youtube chi sei cosa fai? cosa costruisci?
Lmao little italy is also a name of all mafia districts in usa, canada, uk and australia. But glad to see that here is not that kind of little Italy and we brought something good to someone else :P
i guess Im pretty randomly asking but does anyone know a good website to stream newly released tv shows online ?
@Louis Collin i would suggest flixzone. You can find it by googling :)
Very very very interesting! A completely new point of view for me as an Italian. I am so happy there is a place in the world nicknamed after my native land, a little place called little italy where people who have already lived or have relatives living in Italy, dream of a beautiful country of opportunity which helps them build their lives back in Burkina Faso. Italy should advertise that back home and attract investors for these folks! If we grow, they grow, if they grow, we grow.
❤️❤️
Best comments ever

They need to see with their own eyes how their own Burkina people are suffering in Italy. It’s no joke.
I wish we Africans invested our time, effort and had more consistency in our own continent instead of wasting it in a foreign land. Unfortunately the misconception from the lack of education and poverty blinds my African people.
your african people? none of them are the same. you don't get to speak for anyone but yourself
WeeklyTens byee I was born and in italy I grew up there m 50% of my friends where from Burkina. I know what I’m talking about
Finalmente una persona che parla come si deve ! Da italiano dico che l'Italia è un inferno. Ed è triste come queste persone non sappiamo nulla di come si vive in Italia
Odo Black
the suffering is for the Italians ....
You are transforming italy in Africa .
Why instead of running away dont fight for your own countries?
Respect for these hard working people with a dream. God bless them
A big hug to all my friends from Burkina Faso! 😘

@@andreaboccardo907 ha soltanto detto che saluta la gente in Burkina Faso. Il tuo commento non ha senso.
Dear Africans, Italians are moving to Germany for the same reason. I see Italians everyday searching for a job.
Mister Hills no one has to worry robots will do it for nothing, upfront investment and recharge their batteries
Germans may be in Italy but thousands of italian nurses come to Germany to be employed as medical assistants, this is a job in Germany without any studies, just a vocational training but highly qualified italians have to settle for it because they have no choice.
Those are mostly pensioners.
French is such a language that goes with the flow.
it's a shit language
Don't judge the white locals for staring at some random black dude if they don't see black people often. If I, a white man, were to walk in Burkina Faso the locals would also stare at me, because they see something they are not used to.
Romeo Nijsse he wasn't judging...only saying his experience...the first time I saw a white person,I didn't stop dead in tracks and stare...and I was a child...
It's home training...
Italians also say it..."è maleducazione fissare la gente"...but they stare like hell...
TH-BLs,kpop,blythe dolls and 9japop in my soul so is yours darling

il signore e' stato piu' onesto di te ....nel video specifica che veniva osservato per vedere come si sarebbe comportato . Mi pare una azione logica visto che oltrretutto era entrato illegalmente ed era senza documenti.
Se ti ritrovi estranei in casa come reagisci?
L'Italia e' il paese di tutti gli italiani, e' naturale che si sia preoccupati riguardo a che tipo di persone entrino.
Piera Spisso l’americana è un paese per americani. Peccato che sono pieni di italiani e pure mafiosi..
la Germania è un paese loro per tedeschi peccato che è pieno di italiani,
L’Inghilterra è un paese solo per inglese peccato che è pieno di italiani.. senti quando farai tornare tutti gli italiani a cada tutti gli africani se ne andranno da casa vostra.. ma basta poco se dai rapidamente la nazionalità ai stranieri se ne andranno di corsa dall’Italia perché l’Italia è in un paese dove si può fare tutto idilliaco per la transizione!! Teste di cazzo!!!
You are not white@Romeo Nijsse
Wonderful hard working people. Loved the fact that they didn't have any bad thing to say about Italy even though they might have faced some issues like anywhere else.
Merci beaucoup pour ce village!! Je suis italienne.
simple people...nice to watch.
sunny joseph nothing is simple there, didn't you hear the guy say that all his brothers are dead and he has to feed their children.
Such wonderful people.
So much ignorance in the comments... please don't speak for italians if you aren't one of them.
My dad emigrated to Italy in 1987 and he is still there.I joined him in 2004 but i couldn't stay bcoz i missed Ghana so much.Am now living in the USA and i still think about Africa everyday.Hoping oneday i can go home to Ghana and live hapily ever after.
I am italian and You are welcome if this can help your people. Altough governements try to make people blind and they spread hate within our people and our hearts against migrants, but we can't forget our grandfathers was migrants too and we are supposed to be all brothers on this earth. We can learn something from eachother. God bless you .Peace
Wonderful story
Africa needs to develop itself while preserving the environment. I hope they will find a way. Believing it is greener on the other side of the fence, usually leads to great disappointment.
Vprometropolis, i really need to know the name of the background music in this video. So calming.
o sole mio 😊
300 euros a day in italy? Lol
MrSifaperdire oh man, everybody would be picking tomatoes in Italy if that had been true. haha!
do you understand now why they all dream to come to Europe?
300 euros... by putting together all the money that 30 people earned in one day probably
Fake news, in italy immigrants receive about 25€/day from the government
no , they receive only 1,5€ per day+ bed and food, 35€/day go to the organization which host them!
this made me so sad :( i am from burkina faso living in munich germany) was in italy but never heard of all this
A great documentary, beautiful, brave people!
They left Burkina Faso to Italy and come back to their country living an Italian lifestyle from the food they eat,the clothes they wear,everything is Italian
What is this version of o' sole mio?
as italian this is sad and beautiful in the sametime, I hope the best for the african countries and those nice people in the video
Mamma Napoli he ! Cheers from Toronto Canada
I enjoyed watching this. Hopefully someday poverty ends.
beautiful story
so good
Beautiful
Farah marry one of them then
Farah merci
Farah
Why not let them live with YOU, idiot .
Woww. So much like Italy. I couldn’t say the difference actually.
Around 10 - 15 years ago, in Italy of course it was possible to earn 300€ at day.. they were paid by the number of caissons they did. I’m talking about tomatoes fields.. I know it because I’m leaving in Italy, more than 18 years
Ohhh merci la oh😍 je suis fiere d'etre italienne la ohh
€300 a day ????? DON'T THINK SO ..
Jonny Bravo Maybe he meant €3 a day in the countryside of South Italy with caporalat!
not unreasonable considering it's during harvest. I can't imagine harvest lasting more than a week so we're talking
This is how the journey for greener pastures starts. They see the benefits but don't know how their loved ones suffered to get to Italy let alone survive in Italy.
I f you looking for a better life you don't focus on negativity. If you do that, you are doomed. It's pay back time, now or never. Europe will turn black.
Whats the song at 07:00
Enjoyed it but the spaghetti thing is just Burkina, not the Italian roots of this town. Tomato paste, oil, Maggi and spaghetti is what every restaurant in every town serves cause its cheap. That or rice are the only two options usually
That spaghetti recipe served in kiosks is actually more of a West African specialty now and I agree that it's different from authentic italian spaghetti. It's very popular throughout french speaking West Africa as a cheap meal. But if you go to proper higher end restaurants in bigger cities you can find authentic Western food.
C'est pas chez nous à ouaregou grâce à Dieu ouaregou est tjrs ouaregou grâce à dieu notre village est toujours forts
Amiyao Bance mon frere Ouarégou c’est la puissance!!
As an italian that have picked tomatoes in his youth, 300 euros is impossible to be daily. I think it's monthly. Especially because undocumented immigrants are risky to keep on the workplace and they cost less. Is cool to see working people loving our country, but life here is not that easy.
Alessandro Sorice Around 10 - 15 years ago, in Italy of course it was possible to earn 300€ at day.. they were paid by the number of caissons they did. I’m talking about tomatoes fields.. I know it because I’m leaving in Italy, more than 18 years
Alessandro Sorice he talk about his time not now.. now he is i Burkina right
Why aren't these Africans more interested in a french speaking country?
Romeo Nijsse They are intelligent french sucks.
VIVA 🇮🇹🇮🇹!
How do you make 300 euros a day picking tomatoes? Holy shit.
a month
Misaka Mikoto 3€ a day!!
impossible, neither engeneers or surgers earn so much! the must lucky get 25 euros per day but I heard 5 euros too!
The pay gan go from 15 to 30€, of course without a regular contract. Infact like the 90% of "farming" workers i had the change to know, are working illegally.
Cool. The word for money in Italian is the same as it is in French "d'argent" . I read it on the signs.
They are french speaking, why not move to france? I think it will be so easier 🤔
socialists? AHAHAHHAA the nationalists are ruining all of the countries in europe with their fallacious rhetoric
Because we in France don’t understand there french lol that is just
France is a crap country for immigrants
Because in Italy food is good
France is already the most African country in Europe... Italy is very European compared to France or Belgium.
Mon village me manque beguedo
👍👍
dimana2 kalau lihat muslim pasti lihat perbedaan dr wajah walaupun sehitam apapun kulitnya, cara hidup bermasyarakat dll.. mreka suka hidup bersih tidak individualis, yg pasti kata ibu saya kalau bawa tmn non muslim krmh pasti dia tau wlwpn dari wajah wlwpn blm di kasih tau,, memang islam itu indah..
Life in Italy is no easy!
reminds me of far cry 2
I love Italy
I’m italian and I’m proud of you
Aww this is beautiful but his green t-shirt is making me dizzy
Sarà anche un paese povero ma figliano come conigli....facessero meno figli, solito spettacolo deprimente, donne grasse piene di figli
I hope they are not those who give you bracelets in milan lol
Little do they know..
inspiring
Thanks must be changed , and they must be educated about Italy and Europe .
I Love Burkina faso🇧🇷💛💚💙🌷🌺🥀💋💋😘😉🙏👍
Unfortunately here in Italy we have one of the highest unemployment rate. We should help theme there to become more civilized! They would thank us! A lot of them are honest!
3:00 he says he earned up to 300 euros a day working in tomato Fields, which i really doubt. Maybe up to 30 euros?
that is about 1/4 or 1/5th of the average salary of average worker...not something to be proud of. Sad.
the Creative Assembly machinimas 300€ for a day seems impossible because require to harvest many tons of tomato. Maybe was 30€ per day for at least 12 hours, that kind or work has very low wages... Of course not legalized
I heard they get from 5 to 25 euros per day but they have to pay to stay in the shaks, it is true slavery in the south of Italy, since the mass immigration of the last years no italians accept to do that job for that poor pay!
Probably in his wet dream. Migrants in tomatoes fields are threated like beasts.
Mister Hills you talk like it was their guilt... Guilt of being treated like slaves? Maybe i would say the actual system is a cancer. And those who enslave these people.
He said the "whites" in Italy would stare at black people. While Italians aren't white since they live in the Mediterranean they are tan or olive tone.
Peace Love prosperous.💋🇧🇷💛💚💙
Great people, as italian I respect you.
Mister Hills these people have lost the election so they’re here crying about their beloved africans
I'm African and l think people should stay in their countries unless they are travelling and working legally because after travelling around 9 European countries and living there for a minimum if 3 months l have understood something ,so those people trying to come through illegal ways should be sent back
wow these African women look great.... black women in America I feel try to look like caucasian or Latino women too much and don't accentuate their own attributes.
Ed G did you watch the video??🤔bruh they trying to move to italy.😂🤣 fuck a weave I don't want to live with all white folks. No disrespect but I need a some dark skin and afros in my life 😂😂😂🤣🤣#afroamerica
i shant be shutting up sir
Ed G How the fuck do you look like a Latina? You do realise that latins come from all races such as white, brown and black right?
Oh, pensavo che veramente erano degli italiani vivendo lì.
So u be sayin ...we wuz romans and shieet
Masha allah my Muslim brothers
where are you VPRO :( are you ok
Dr. Sanjit Rajput This was a project, it ended in 2015-2016.
It is back right now!
These are true black people. Really respectful and hardworking
Oh because there are fake black people?
VPRO Metropolis not fake but there has been generations of black people in America. And they have changed to different people in America. People way different than the one in this country in Africa
'Black people' isn't one culture you idiot. There are hundreds of different races and ethnicities all across the world that have dark skin and within those ethnicities there are even more diverse cultures and histories. To have an umbrella term for all black people is as stupid as trying to generalise the cultures of all white people.
Jack Wilson I don’t think you can read. Read what I said again, did I ever mention “black people is a culture”
DMTV you're still implying that "black people" is one unified people group that shares the same work ethic and penchant for respect, when in reality there is no such thing as being "black" in a cultural or sociological sense, it is merely a skin colour. Take your racist generalisations elsewhere you fucking imbecile
Weren't they colonize by France? They need help building there own country but living on the edge of the Sahara is rough. I hope to one day see a self sustainable Africa as African resources in the past is what made most of Europe "rich".
If I would have lots of money I'll go to Africa for social work.il be happy to work with them.
I'm one of those to dislike the video...that is because I rather see Africans looking for internal resolution and not lusting over what they only see from a far. It take a visionary to see the great potential of Africa and how great things could be if we could get past our small differences to focus on the bigger picture. All African countries need to incorporate Ethics and Anti-Corruption strategies in our education systems.
Long live Africa
Blacjee Brablac
😆💀
300e a day hahahaha, Italians gave them 300 cent
you earn more money in europe but you also have to pay more taxes, incurances and the prices for food and other stuff are much higher
on cherche tjrs d'un ailleurs..
Have sense of Architecture, at all.
good luck italy
We should be fighting our leaders to make africa better.Europe would not be a better place if the people accepted underdevelopment.
Chinese building railways cities and infrastructure in Africa African leaders educate train your people so that they can do this with labour from all African countries
🇧🇫🇧🇫
pourquoi,metroplis ne vient pas corne d'afrique
Ok
Pourquoi. vous ne parlez pas Bissa et puis vous parlez en monre ça c'est quoi ça
Sorry but you gotta find somewhere else to go now. We are done.
You think moving to Europe will bring you an easy life? You think Europeans don't worry about money and work?
Instead of dreaming about living easy in some other country work on making your country the one you dream about.
It's cute but if only know the reality I mean Italy is good but we all have dark times I just wished that they can live lifes without Italy I mean come on ❤️❤️
pasta and bread?
I love moeslem
300e for an african working the fields in italy? Is that true? Honest question
zepole87 per month probably, it's called "caporalato" and used to be super common in the south of Italy, now the governments are trying to stop that enslavement
hahaha I think 99% of italians wishes 300€ per day! (6000 per month!)
300 in a MONTH, living in tends and barracks (no hot water or electricity) near the fields where they work for more than 9 hours a day. 300 for Burkina Faso standards is surely a big amount of money, though.
Buono a sapersi che parlano italiano. Quando nel 2048 andrò in pensione, con i miei ricchi 200 euro al mese, li potrò fare la vita del signore.
Honest question... how are africans treated in Italy?
Mister Hills La ragazza,si chiamava Pamela
Mister Hills Pamela Mastropietro
if you are a legal worker who have some skills you can have a regular contract and get a pay not different than italians'one, if you are illegal you will have fight to find how to survive!
Wow are they speak French?
yeah
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🗡
✊🏾🇧🇮
Piața ca acum două mii de ani dar se înmulțesc ca șobolanii știind că nu au ce mânca
Mamba vi pi mazhe
Now I want to try Spaghetti in Burkina Faso!
i would hate to wear new shoes in that village
Jarvis Sdot lol
Pakistan now so rich . Usa and japan people come here for wroking he also wrok in store and tamato agri . You may come
Well I think it would be awesome if the people of Africa would all band together and kick De Beers Mining Company out of their country they have a vast amount of wealth and yet the people are poor so many resources in Africa gold diamonds oil agriculture and yet they are all poor this is so fucking disgusting
Think deeper .............. and you will find the answer.
ciao
fred Mining is a risky investment cos mining companies can spend hundreds of millions of dollars just to explore if the place is economically viable or not if it's not viable is lost money and these countries have no money nor the technology to endure that task, if they kick out those companies they won't be taxing these companies to extract the minerals and it will be less money for the country, anyhow corruption is the main problem in those countries, no matter how much money in revenues they get there'll always be corrupt politicians stealing that money
French zone influence but come all in italy 👎.
canarino Canarino cuz they land here and there is the dublin rule, so they're mainly in the first country they arrived to. Trust me there are many guys like them here, from other countries
