Synopsis

This is a memory film. Via Benedetto Marcello, Bologna. A family of students, artists, workers. The images of the house lived in during the Coronavirus lockdown alternate with an intimate diary of words and photographs. As the pages of the diary go by, the house empties for a move. The emptiness of the rooms is filled by the vitality of the brightly colored photographs that evoke a joyful everyday life, the words are melancholy, with a sweet sadness. An experimental subjective ethnography of quarantine is intertwined with a reflection on the narration of a lived event, on joy and pain, on photography and writing.
