Docuseries: four episodes (100 min) Camminare | Partire | Abitare | Restare qui
After-talk with the director Anna de Manincor, the sound designer Massimo Carozzi and the actors.
Conceived by ZimmerFrei Collective as a sort of documentary formula and coming of age movie, Saga is an original docuseries narrating the life of some youngers of different backgrounds and revealing a new idea of citizenship and inclusive city. In the framework of the three-year project Atlas of Transitions Biennale, Zimemrfrei has explored their hometown, Bologna, wondering how one becomes a resident and how it feels like to become adults in this city. To do so, they have adopted the perspective of some boys and girls they met during the workshops carried out at Arena del Sole Theatre. They have shared sound walks and field recordings, conversations and stories and realized full-length video recordings and photographic excursions.
For each of the protagonists involved – Yakub, Tea, Filmon, Bana and Ada – Bologna represents home; however, while in 2018 the city was in full swing, waving from territorial marketing, gentrification and low-cost tourism, in 2020 it has changed completely and all stories have been transformed by the urgency of reinventing life day by day. In the saga’s four episodes, the detailed exploration of some central and suburban places become the reason for unusual findings, intimate appropriation and rootedness, as a formation novel in the form of film diary.
