BATTIMA
With the presence of the director, the productor Carolina Iorio and Michela Greco for Emergency

 

Resting on the Lazio beach known as Coccia di Morto, young African Kimutai is enjoying the sun by the water’s edge. His desire to spend just a normal day is interrupted by silly misunderstanding that kicks off a chain reaction of disagreements with the other sunbathers. Kimutai is thus obliged to find a new centre of gravity poised between reality and illusion. “I like thinking that Kimutai will find the courage to rebel and leave the metaphorical shoreline that keeps him trapped as though in a limbo.” (F. Demattè)
