Italian police has tried to establish contact between the lady and the Mauritian consulate in Italy, but without success. She has also been offered a job, but has refused, because she feels her ‘closer to her family in the airport’.
She gets a small pension and makes a living from coins left by travelers in their baggage-trolleys.
Her story resembles the story from the Tom Hanks movie, The Terminal, where a traveler was trapped in JFK Airport with no entry in US or his homeland. The Cesaria Ton Story will soon be ready for the cinemas, as a film director has followed her in her daily life in the airport.
