I Am One Of Those Fortunate is a show about the hundreds of thousands of children raised between two phones, between two packages, blowing out birthday candles on video. It’s about their mothers who left without looking back, who simultaneously cared for old people in Italy and children in Romania, and who managed to find the strength to stay afloat in an uncertain economic climate, both at home and in the countries they left for. It is about those who have learned to live between here and there. The text is based on some of the 50 interviews conducted as part of the Anonimii Migrației project – mainly in the villages of Carastelec, Hida and Marca, Sălaj county.
