Monte Amiata

This short documentary captures life in Filippa di Mesoraca, a little village in Calabria in southern Italy. Inspired by the migration of young people to the cities of the north, "Grigio. Terra bruciata" ("Burnt. Land of Fire") tells about what's left in the village and how the older people live the last years of their life. Just like elderly faces ravaged by time, the walls of the unfinished houses decay slowly, returning to nature. This film is about a place that transformed alongside the people who live there.

Until the beginning of the 20th century in France, the game of hide and seek was called "cligne-musette". In a winter landscape, the film follows five kids and a young man who wanders alone between the desolate buildings of the Valibout neighbourhood, located in the province town of Plaisir. They will not cross paths but seem destined to meet the same fate, that of being abandoned to themselves; to hide and not to be found.

Pietro, a bricklayer and writer, reflects on the meaning of war and visits his sister after years of silence.

"The Age of Genius" enters a place where form is mixed with lyricism and the magic of body movements and gazes. The eyes are filled with wonder and reveal themselves as a metaphor for a society that wishes to become children again. The protagonists' exercises lean towards theatricality and imagination. The walls of this space thus become witnesses of these gestures, of these endlessly repeated attempts to finally reach maturity.

A Somali migrant seeks refuge in the underground of a building near the Swiss-Italian border. A popular song from his country awakens in him the desire to leave.
