On July 16 , the day will be dedicated to poetry with Let’s Talk About Amelia, a meeting curated by Roberta Lanave and Camilla Sandri Bellezza to rediscover the figure and work of Amelia Rosselli through an open and participatory discussion.
On July 18 , theater will take center stage with The Regiment Departs at Dawn, an adaptation by Giuseppe Nitti taken from one of Buzzati's last writings, an intense reflection on the themes of life, time, and one's roots.
The festival's closing, on July 19, will feature the music-theater show Cantastorie (rehearsals of…) by Max Solinas and Nicola Pilat Spina, a tale woven from words and music that addresses universal themes such as freedom, change, and memory.
