Asmara is the capital city of Eritrea, vitrine of art deco architecture built by the Italian Colonization. The heritage is almost undamaged despite the war against Ethiopia. The new nation was created when Independence was proclaimed in 1993. But nothing has changed neither the development of the country. Everyday, people live with several hours of power cut. A frozen world. Despite the Eritrean are very proud of their nation, they are all trying to leave the country because of one of the worst dictatorship in the world and the indefinite military conscription. Meanwhile, life in Eritrea seems like in others countries. But silence and propaganda are the power. Freedom and individuality are denied and the economy is at point zero. As a result, the diaspora is constantly increasing. Eritrea is one of the country where a lot of the migrants, trying to reach Europe, are coming from.
Freedom of the press is one the worse in the world and journalists and photographers are banned from entering the country.
