Place of memory

2019

The short film, "place of memory", depicts these symbolic and anthropic places as they changed over time. The film tells the story of Eugenio and Adriana, who purchased a Cold War bunker out of passion and became its custodians and guides, transforming a place which had to remain strategically hidden into a hotspot of a broader ecological network, the European Green Belt. The EGB initiative promotes the conservation and restoration of a high-value natural environment along the former 12,500 km long Iron Curtain running through 8 bio-geographical regions in 24 European and Non-European countries.
