The story of the growth and development of Farmitalia, Settimo Torinese, one of Italy’s largest drugs firms, as told by past and present company employees. Memories and hopes are interwoven in a portrait of an enterprise that shifted production from processes with a high environmental impact and risk of occupational exposure due to the use of inorganic substances to fully eco-compatible processes employing innovative technologies based on biological procedures.
Mario Piavoli (b. 1970, Desenzano del Garda, Italy) earned a degree in political science before specializing in cultural events organization and communication at the Catholic University, Brescia. Documentaries to his credit include: Racconti di terra e di fiume (2004), Paramatti-La casa di tutti... i colori (2005), presented at CinemAmbiente 2005, and L'emozione del corpo "Circo, danza e storie varie" (2006).
«The documentary follows three different storylines. […] The first illustrates the old manufacturing methods […] and the transformation from production based on inorganic chemistry […] to enzymatic technologies using biological processes to produce drugs in a manner that is ecologically sound. […] The second unfolds with testimonies of former employees […] recounting their experience in the factory and the city. The third is derived from Primo Levi’s story about the life of a carbon atom as narrated by Mariella Fabbris. The images basically represent the four natural elements: earth (a rocky reef); air (a seagull in flight); water (ocean waves); fire (a sunset)».
