    Fallen Houses | Case cadute

    Gianluca Abbate
    Italia | 2024 | 16’12’’

    A personal story set against the backdrop of the 1980 Irpinia earthquake, narrated by a father to his own son. This event becomes a universal paradigm to explore the history of those who were forced to leave their homes and migrate. People are intrinsically tied to places, and these places hold the memories of those who inhabited them.
