Under the Sea

Ernesto is a teenager who wanders, in search of himself, through the streets of Rome. Chapter after chapter, time passes and people just disappear but he continues to live impromptu relationships, causing pain to himself and to others. Taking refuge in his happy moments and in political ideologies, he believes he can save his soul from suffering although life will force him to grow and move forward.

To be born and to grow up on an island like Sardinia, it almost feels like to live inside of a Diorama: a small, picturesque surrounding that can only give you an impression of reality. Seen through the eyes of a person who left and told by the voices of the young people that are still there, Diorama is an analysis on belonging to a place that feels abandoned and hostile towards the people that inhabit an island that has so much to offer, but at the same time nothing to give.
