SYNOPSIS
Emiliano, Valentina, Paolo, Elisabetta, Stefano and Alessio live in the tent camp of Collemaggio after the catastrophic earthquake that hit the city of L’Aquila on the 6^th of April. One is a movie director, some others are musicians, and others still would like to be actors…this is how their real stories, the stories of people that don’t want to stop dreaming and wishing for things, are mixed with other, imagining, reinventing relations and relationships notwithstanding the lack of all kinds of intimacy that marks life in a tent camp, and despite the fact that the tragedies experienced by the people living next to them keep bringing everything back to that tragic night on the 6th of April. The outside world, starting from the media, has assigned them roles in a voyeuristic manner: sometimes as inconsolable victims, sometimes as simple prisoners. But the six characters they want to interpret are something else, and they don’t need any (other) author.
