Le Mura di Bergamo

"The Walls of Bergamo," Stefano Savona's documentary film, takes us back to the nightmare that Bergamo experienced in March 2020. The pandemic that has plagued the entire world comes ruthlessly upon the city. This documentary retraces those deserted streets, that terror that thickens day after day isolating us and distancing us from the others we end up fearing, physically and psychologically. Separated families, those unforgettable rows of coffins outside hospitals. Doctors, nurses, ordinary people who faced this hell tell us about those moments that marked their and our lives forever. Personal griefs that become collective griefs to be processed through the images and stories collected in this documentary. "The Walls of Bergamo," by Stefano Savona, is a documentary that takes us by the hand and leads us into the drama of the pandemic, experienced within the Lombardy city, a symbol of the Italian tragedy related to Covid19.
