Film

Equal voices

The subject is based on the idea that asylum applicants and refugees live among us and so are part of our social reality. The main characters are three men and two women who are actually going through this experience in real life. They are representatives of an African, a Middle East, an Eastern European and a Latin American country. The film plays on the particularities of the characters’ mother tongues in order to render the identity of asylum applicants and refugees living in Europe more real. This narrative choice may disorientate viewers at first but then begins to involve them in this multilingual conversation.

Il regista / The Director

Vittoria Castagneto (Turin, 1963) began her theater career as assistant director in prose and lyric theater. Since 1988 she has written and directed TV and radio programs for RAI-RAISAT. In 1997 she founded the association La Margherita. Her recent works include: Sciopero!, Diario da Tokyo, La ballata di Geraldina. Her works have been presented at national and international festivals. La saponetta won her Special Mention Best Short at Cannes in 2000, Short film section CCAS-Kodak.

“It is always a thrill to work with people who have directly experienced what we want to transform into images. So, after some conversation, their experience became a sort of music score composed of their various languages, while the shooting location became a metaphor of the asylum applicant and refugee. The bare wooden beach structure became an open cage: a delicate condition to be in, to cope with and from which to start a new life.”
