CONFINI
BORDERS
Alina Marazzi / Italy / 2014 / 10 min / Black and white
Archival footage from the Istituto Luce shows young soldiers on Mount Adamello during the Great War. Amid snow and silence, the voice of Mariangela Gualtieri evokes inner boundaries and the madness of war. A poetic short from the collective film 9x10 novanta.
