Lagunaria, Giovanni Pellegrini, Italy 2022, 85'’
A voice from a distant future tells of a lost city that was once among the most famous in the world, a city that rose from the water. Through legends, rituals, and gossip, the narrator describes a daily life based on boats, at times mythical, at others dramatic and poetic, revealing its profound connection with the surrounding lagoon, its waters, its muddy islands, and the animals that inhabit it.
