GIANNI MANIA, Italy
'When I arrived on the scene, the sea was continuing to give back the migrants' belongings – bags, shoes, documents, Korans – but it was done with returning the bodies. After the initial confusion and panic as people confronted this tragedy, piety took over. All the suburned bodies had been covered up by a friendly person, in exactly the same place where the sea had given them back to the shore. One instant was all it took. The scenario in front of me was heartbreaking but in one frame you could evoke all the drama and the desolation found in a one-way trip.' |

'After the adoption of a Russian law prohibiting homosexual 'propaganda' to minors, I wanted to see how people live and work in gay clubs in St. Petersburg.

I got there after midnight to find many visitors. The atmosphere at the club was nice, people were friendly, not shy or afraid of being photographed – that's what I remember from my visit. Life goes on.' |

This ultra-nationalist group was founded in the 1990s and currently has 100-plus members.
