RIONE SANITÀ, LA CERTEZZA DEI SOGNI

RIONE SANITÀ, LA CERTEZZA DEI SOGNI
by Massimo Ferrari
Country: Italy
Year: 2020
Duration: 57'


Father Antonio Loffredo is the key advocate of the rebirth of Rione Sanità, in Naples. From the church of Santa Maria della Sanità the stories of all the protagonists of the film unfold, with developments, plots, hopes and difficulties overcome and to be overcome. Boys who have taken control of their destiny pursuing a dream they have given soundness and certainty to: running of and tour-guiding at the Catacombs, schools of theater, music, sculpture and a new sports center. All this, which only fifteen years ago seemed impossible, has become reality. As Father Antonio Loffredo likes to repeat, "at Rione Sanità Humanism either becomes humanity, or it dies."<p><iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/nDvBV3XaOxI" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>

Declaration

film director

"From the start, I had as a common thread the idea that this microcosm is a model of a possible world, a choice of humanity and beauty that is a counterpoint to the world of Gomorrah and instead represents a model of human, economic and cultural development. These are three inseparable aspects that require the daily effort of building things and keeping them in place. The practice of creating this world every day is the core of the narrative."
