2025 - 30' – Italian (Available subtitles: English, German)
Have you eaten? It is the most authentic expression of love.
Aldo Masini was born in Lucca (Italy) on 3 September 1998. From a young age, he chose to explore the world of electronic music. Continuing in this field, he acquired multiple skills in photography, filmmaking and graphic design. After finishing high school in 2018, he collaborated with small local companies, creating event videos, commissioned music videos, soundtracks for short films, video sets for live shows, graphics and logos for brands. After graduating in 2022 as a Digital Media Designer from the Modartech Academy in Pontedera, he joined the ZeLIG documentary school in Bolzano in the editing class. The movie “Briciole” was his graduation project. He has won videomaking competitions and has directed and edited documentaries, films and short fiction films. Some of his works have been presented at the Bolzano Film Festival, (“PYGMALIA” from 2024), and at the Venice Theatre Biennale.
Francesca Biaggi was born in Rovereto (IT) in 2003. She graduated in A.Vittoria artistic high school in Trento (IT), where she frequented three-year multimedia and audiovisual. After that, she decided to attend Zelig, School for Documentary in Bozen, in directing class. During her high school and Zelig years, she dedicated herself to taking portrait photos, wedding photos and small commercials for small local businesses in Trentino Alto Adige together with Red Sheep, a small audiovisual production by young people of her age from the territory.
I think we are not always accepted by the realities from which we come or in which we’ve arrived, and this pushes people many times to feel abandoned to themselves, with strong feelings of incomprehension toward those around us. This place in Trento, which for me, strive to make sure that this does not happen, through the sharing of something as simple, but not trivial, as eating, cooking together and making food for those in need, need to be seen and celebrated.
