To be born and to grow up on an island like Sardinia, it almost feels like to live inside of a Diorama: a small, picturesque surrounding that can only give you an impression of reality. Seen through the eyes of a person who left and told by the voices of the young people that are still there, Diorama is an analysis on belonging to a place that feels abandoned and hostile towards the people that inhabit an island that has so much to offer, but at the same time nothing to give.


A late summer day. In a house near the sea, memories settle in that delicate space between childhood innocence and the transition to adulthood.
