In a candid home interview preceded by a secretly recorded conversation, Alessandro reflects on the climate crisis as he always has, but for the first time in front of a camera. Captured for future memory, this moment carries a perhaps futile hope: that one day, we might say, “It turned out better than expected.” Additionally, Ecoterrorismo is the title of an ambient music podcast series Alessandro has curated since 2023, under the alias vivian bell, for fritto.fm.

A diary fragment: legacies beyond blood ties, through a blood orange.

In an attempt to tell the story of the Tree of Ténéré from a non-human perspective, we entrusted the narrative to an artificial intelligence, treating it as a species in its own right, capable of seeing beyond our anthropocentric view. But perhaps what it produces can never truly be neutral, as the images it generates are inevitably filtered through the human gaze. Can we really tell the world without ourselves in it?

Alberto, Francesco, and Mariella live in Carbonia. Their childhoods and youth were filmed on Super 8 and then stored away in an old box. Now, in a cinema, they will watch those images again after many years. Through three intertwining stories, the film explores the evolution of a country that experienced the rapid economic growth of the 1980s, feminist struggles, and the simple yet secure life of the old working class.

A diary film built from home movies shot by a father in Sardinia during the 1950s and ’60s, capturing playful and affectionate family moments before his early death. Paired with Kafka’s “Letter to His Father,” the film reflects on absence, memory, and the filmmaker’s own father, exploring how those lost continue to live through the images we watch.
