18 Ius Soli - The Right of Citizenship
(Time: 50 minutes Subtitle: English)
The documentaryxamines issues of race, ethnicity, and national identity in 21st-century multicultural Italy. It includes interviews with 18 young men and women born in Italy to immigrant parents who have attended Italian schools, speak Italian, and see themselves as Italian; however, they are not Italian citizens due to current law. Their struggle for citizenship and recognition has affinities with that of the Dreamers, undocumented young people brought to the U.S. as children. 18 Ius Soli thus offers a unique perspective on not only contemporary Italian society, but also the immigrant movements and activism of "dreamers" around the world.
18 Ius Soli is an essential resource for academic libraries, offering valuable insights into contemporary issues of citizenship, immigration, and identity in Europe. This documentary is particularly relevant for courses in:
Immigration Studies
European Studies
Cultural Studies
Ethnic Studies
Social Justice
Global Studies

18 Ius Soli provides a unique perspective on citizenship issues, drawing parallels with the DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) debate in the United States.
It offers students a global context for understanding immigration policies and their impact on individuals
and communities
