39° TORINO FILM FESTIVAL
FUORI CONCORSO/L'INCANTO DEL REALE
SOTTO LO STESSO TEMPO
by allievi CSC Palermo
Ten students from a film school find themselves locked up at home a few weeks after classes began. Outside, COVID-19 is turning the whole world upside-down. As they wait for the emergency to end, the young people reflect on what it means to recount and film, as they follow time suspended between private emotions and major collective changes.

Declaration
film director
“Over the months, the suspended time during the lockdown at home became our ‘interesting’ time. It gave us a shared objective, to try to recount ourselves in a daily life made of little or nothing, as we tried to dialogue with History, with which each one of us felt part, for the first time. Then, all of a sudden, the need to go beyond ourselves, in search of other stories, other people, other movies to imagine, in order to free ourselves from this movie in which we had imprisoned ourselves.”
