Documentary / Video Essay
Dario Di Liberti: Researcher – Sicily Area, 2023
An experimental travelogue in the Sicilian island off the tourist trail. Somewhere between urbex and a conversation on the role of architecture in Sicily, the video essay reflects on the difficulty of inhabiting this territory by documenting violence and its condition as “waste land”.
“Is there any hope of getting back on track? Is it still possible
today to have a dialogue to the future instead of almost
exclusively to the past?”
