Livia Ferracchiati - Todi is a small town in the center of Italy
Description
The performance takes as a case study the director's native town, Todi, and some of its young inhabitants: Michele, Stella, Elisa and Caroline, a small tribe of thirty-year olds with their own rules and rhythms, and a fifth character, a documentary filmmaker who connects fiction and reality. The viewpoint of the filmmaker is a subjective one that records everything Todi brings with it: embarrassment, priggishness, enmities, non-conformism and closed minds, it is the point of view of the "foreigner" who explores the multitude but is later impressed by four like-minded individuals.
