Synopsis: FiglioDì displays the everyday life of two non-profit-making associations involved in social integration activities. The narrative is set in the Firenze-Prato-Pistoia Plain in Tuscany, whose high population density, correlated with the fervour of its industrial districts, have always generated a lot of debate about immigration amongst the dwellers and the politcs of this area. It is here that the associations of FiglioDì work with two different immigrant communities: The Chinese one, locally based for generations and whose high school dropout rate is what one of the associations is dealing with, and the one composed by African newcomers, who are offered a Second Reception Service by the other association.
