Tangiers. Stories of everyday life intertwine, a voice recounts a story of resistance, desires, courage and destiny. It’s the voice of a young woman, whose identity isn’t revealed. The intimacy of these moments remains like an imprint. [rm]
Biography
film director
Gabriele di Munzio
Gabriele di Munzio (Naples, Italy, 1972) studied photography and film editing in London from 1993 to 1995, and developed an interest in theater thanks to a number of seminars held at the Peter Brook and Eugenio Barba research centers and at Teatro Valdoca. In 2001, he started making several documentaries in the Poitou-Charentes region, and he moved on to video-theater shorts in 2005. He created the association Cantine1901 in 2007, which produced his short Riviera 91, winner of the Special Jury Prize at the 2009 Torino Film Festival. Two years later, he received the same award for Occhio di vetro cuore non dorme (2011). He then returned to the Torino Film Festival with Corpo familiare in 2014, and with TanjaTales in 2016.

Declaration
film director
“While listening to Douaa on the streets of Tangiers, I think the story she is telling me isn’t that of a friend, but I can’t ask her, the story is too intimate. During the editing, I put together the pieces of the puzzle, I superimpose the unrecorded memories and now I am certain: the story she told me is hers. Thank you, Douaa.”
