Sponde

Marta Morandini – Sponde

Sponde is a film that dwells on the passage between the end of childhood and the beginning of adolescence of three friends during a summer's day. The girls part from their friends and the crowded beach and set out along the banks of the river. The landscape gradually opens up, human voices give way to the sounds of nature and the animals that inhabit the river. In this silence, a vision of a metamorphosis of bodies and landscape unfolds in a unique symbiosis. As evening falls, one of them is seized by an inexplicable stirring of the soul and turns back, without warning her friends who have fallen asleep on the rocks. The other two, upon waking, continue walking in the direction of the water, becoming small figures lost on the horizon.

Alessandra Ghiazza – Paysages absents - Absent landscapes

by Alessandra Ghiazza

In the empty spaces I find pieces of dreams fields and water, of the forgotten green. A stratification of memories that leads to reveal experiences in natural landscapes, real but also places suspended between memory and the dreamlike, creating through geometric and repetitive shapes a space of contemplation on places, to find them again; postcards of a fragile and continuously changing landscape.

Camila Polania – Instructions of Rematriation

by Camila Polania

Some say the body arrives first, and the soul takes longer. This installation begins with that delay, in the tension between presence and absence. Instructions of Rematriation is a video installation projected onto a wind-moved fabric, a surface that never fully settles. In front, white Rimax chairs evoke everyday spaces of waiting across Latin America: porches, patios, sidewalks. The work follows the passing of a single day, tracing the slow return to the body after displacement. Through video, writing, textile, and sound, the installation holds a kind of return, not geopolitical, but personal and ancestral: a political and spiritual reconnection with what was once left behind.

Giorgio Cassano – ZONA DI SACRIFICIO

by Giorgio Cassano

ZONA DI SACRIFICIO is a film study that fuses documentary, ethnography, and poetic montage around the Fiume Tara—Taranto’s revered “miracle river.” Through a tapestry of memories, legends, visions, and personal testimonies, the film explores how this sacred source has sustained local identity and resilience, even as the encroachment of the ILVA steelworks has turned the surrounding landscape into a literal “sacrifice zone.” It is both a visual elegy to a once-pure watercourse and a poignant reflection on environmental violence, tracing the uneasy coexistence of spiritual reverence and industrial devastation in a community striving to reclaim its voice.
