In a huge indoor space, networks of services and human activities take place. Streams of people flow in an architectural dimension as aseptic as the relationships of its people, moving on the notes of a recurring and sedating background music.

Declaration
film director
“As far as I’m concerned, the film was started and then it was intentionally set aside. After shooting in complete solitude and reducing the amount of footage after a restrictive selection, I decided to ask Enrico if he’d be available to look over the material. I needed to take a step back from the images, let them get in touch with someone else whom I trusted instinctively and who could work on editing them without any constraint or pressure from me. The result of this unusual work process was an important and enriching experience, both on a human and professional level.” (L. Ferri)
