Cracolice, by Fabio Serpa, 2020, 12′

Cracolice, a seaside village in the Tyrrhenian Sea, is sadly known in the news for an event that broke out in the early 90s, never denied or confirmed: following the landing of the famous “ships of poisons”, the young population suddenly stopped growing, creating eternal adolescents. How this was possible, still remains a mystery.

En rang par deux, by M. Giusti, V. Mancini, E. Bosco, 2020, 7′

The idea for the film comes from the encounter with two African boys who live in Rome, and is based on their music. In this film, midway between an interview and a music video, Tunisian Afif and Senegalese Aliou tell their different stories, talk about friendship, immigration, freedom and, above all, about the fundamental value of making music together.
