Presented at the 14th edition of Lo schermo dell'arte, 2021 Film produced thanks to the crowdfunding campaign Artists' FIlm Italia Recovery Fund The film is the result of a collective film workshop the artist held in Turin, Italy, involving refugees and people with a migrant background. Together they began to weave a story that has its roots in the films each of them loved during their childhood. These cinematographic memories have become a field of exchange and negotiation to question and rewrite the places where we live together today. In the video the squares and monuments of Turin with their history, are transformed into a theater that hosts the stories of the participants in the workshop, whose origins are lost within the boundaries of the geographies crossed.
