The phenomenon of the badanti — the women, most of them from eastern Europe, who care for the elderly in Italian homes — seen through one of the great documentary photographers of our time. Jane Evelyn Atwood, who has spent her career with people who live at the margins and with the idea of exclusion, follows Darya, a Ukrainian carer, and the household in which she works and lives.
