Pope Francis announced an extraordinary Jubilee in March 2015 and believers all around the world celebrated the upcoming "Holy Year of Mercy." For some of Rome's inhabitants, though, this was reason of despair: in fact, since then the number of forced evictions of Roma people in the Italian capital tripled, affecting more than 1,100 persons during as many as 70 operations.
