IL FUOCO GRANDE - THE BIG FIRE, 15min. Italy
Directed by Erika Errante Baruffaldi
During an interview, a man being questioned shows a particular interest in mysterious incorporeal beings that seem to haunt him and make him strangely inefficient. His account is a succession of images attempting to capture and portray the appearance and habits of these beings. The interview frames a video, constructed as a collection of fake found footage, blurred memories, and the man's fantasies, becoming a testimony of the existence of these beings, which are difficult to remember and describe for anyone who has encountered them.
