Stories we will be
by Daniele Atzeni Marco Bertozzi Claudio Casazza Giulia Cosentino Irene Dionisio Martina Melilli Matteo Zadra 20' / found footage / Italy / 2021 Where to restart if not from our memory to imagine the future after this global emergency? In the period of isolation caused by Covid-19, in which we all witnessed a time as hard as it was suspended, seven authors set out in their own way to question themselves, inspired by this fragile present and by looking to the past without nostalgia. They reflect on what has been denied to us and imagine the world as it will become: Stories We Will Become. |
With the invitation not to create new images but to work on pre-existing material, both intimate and domestic, available from family film archives, this short film expresses the potential of documentary cinema, close to the world but far from current events.

That Elusive Balance
by Salvatore Insana 9' 40'' / found footage / Italy / 2021 In order to think and study about happiness, I chose to make my film by going through and re-elaborating the "home movies" of Adolf Hitler and Eva Braun, dated between 1938 and 1944, images of a private life, far from the clamor of the war and rich in moments of family joy, those that the "intimate circle" of the German dictator and his companion spent in the mountain refuge-house of Berghof or in the various trips around Europe. |
Salvatore Insana attended the University of Roma Tre concluding his studies in 2010 with a paper on the concept of Useless. With Elisa Turco Liveri, actress and performer he has created in 2011 the collective Dehors/Audela, producing video-theatrical works, audiovisual projects, site specific installations and photographic investigation, experimental workshops.
He continued his research in motion pictures, photography and other media forms, interested in moving bodies in their elusiveness, in their metamorphic and tragic ability to elude us, interested to probe deeper on the limits of vision, on the "visual spectra", and collaborating with several sound artists, composers and theater companies, and his works has been screened at several institutions and festivals around the world. |
Heimat
by Giovanni Montagnana 20' / found footage / Italy / 2021 Halfway between a documentary and an artistic installation, Heimat, starting from the creative fragmentation of the Last Letters from Stalingrad, a collection of letters written in December 1942 by German soldiers besieged in the Stalingrad sack, is a sensorial and universal investigation of that very mysterious object that is the memory of Home: a mysterious, elusive object, always on the verge of fading. In Heimat, the paste of old family films, brushstrokes of color and chemical residues of decomposing film coexist. A reality that becomes oneiric, almost hallucinatory. |
The images and sounds in Heimat express all their materiality, their being objects marked by time, consumed, and ruined. An extremely sensorial cinematic experience to reflect on memory what binds us to our affections and everything we call home. In a word: our Heimat.
Giovanni Montagnana is a filmmaker and Visual Designer, born in Grosseto but has always lived in Verona. He graduated in Cinema at Dams in Bologna and divides his time between commercial video and personal film projects. In 2021 his short film "Heimat" won the Zavattini Award, a reference point for the creative reuse of archival cinema, organized by AAMOD in collaboration with, among others, Home Movies and Istituto Luce - Cinecittà. |
