Production Lenz Fondazione


As science slowly unravels the mysteries of the universe, the reality that presents itself to our eyes is, paradoxically, even more difficult to grasp. If what we know increases at the speed of light, what we do not understand proliferates at the speed of darkness, it grows exponentially, like the dark energy that is tearing the cosmos apart.


Today, regardless of the opinions we have, we have suspicions towards those who have the ability to see the flashes of our future in the present.

We prefer to ignore warnings. We live in a time of crisis, a time, as Gramsci writes, where the old dies and the new cannot be born.


The glare of the triumph of reason precipitates our daily interactions into deafness.

Cassandra sees from the treasure of her nightmares where others cannot and speaks.


But what is his language?

It is perhaps an articulation that overcomes linguistic articulation, built on an excess of language. His condemnation is not only that he is not believed, but that his word can never reach a sufficient distance to be understood.
