“The theme chosen for this edition, to complete the triptych started in 2016 with Identità, continued in 2017/2018 with Metamorfosi, this time will concern Utopia – comments the artistic director Mimmo Mongelli – as already written and developed by the philosopher Valerio Meattini” . In this regard, a review of three films will be published online, precisely on the theme ‘Utopia’, curated by Roberto Gambacorta. “The issues we are dealing with in this edition that we had to postpone due to Covid – concludes Mongelli – are strongly linked to that desire for redemption that is spreading in the new generations of Taranto and in the most sensitive strata of the local population”.
