Una finestra che respira la città - Italy - Elisa Lacicerchia - EIVV 22

"Soul eager for life Fear not to leave your four walls of illusions Breathe!" A boy walks thoughtfully into his room, he looks out of the window and begins to observe his surroundings. Suddenly, an idea resonates in his mind and begins to spread throughout his body: his desire to escape, to go beyond the spaces that constrain him to the canons of appearance, to leave home with his own experience prevails to meet what different from him is. The window thus becomes the symbol of portals, of bridges, a junction between the real and the unreal. The boundary between internal, intimate space and external, public space becomes increasingly blurred. Every place involves the boy differently, transmitting to him emotions and sensations. In his turn, the young boy inhabits and animates the spaces through his movement and gives them a new meaning, leaving a mark of himself. The protagonist undertakes a journey that leads him to physically and mentally strip himself of the superfluous until he rediscovers his essence and contact with external reality.
