At night there were stars

Gabriele Meloni, Giovanni Pintus / Italy (12'57'')

A dystopic parallel reality. A future wrongly built, on the uncertain basis of the misconduct of a wicked humanity. In this thirsty and lost world, Lori can count on his fantasy, courage, curiosity and on the vivid colour of his youth. Grandpa Bruno, who gave up dreaming a long time ago, instead, bears the weight of his age. In this future with no light, where the sky is yellowed as the stale society is unable to change, the determination of a child lights the hopes and, in an imagined blue sky, the stars.
