Behind locked doors

Gianni Vukaj e Beatrice Bernacchi 2020

Italy, in the days of the pandemic, two young people make the decision to marry. The wedding preparations were filmed almost entirely by phone. Six other stories connect with the story of the future spouses. That of a grandmother that is in lockdown with the her 26-year-old grandson. The story of an 8-year-old girl with Down’s syndrome. That of a father and a four-year-old son waiting for his mother to leave for Bergamo to serve her duty as a nurse. That of a young cyclist who while riding her bike makes us enter into the young people’s life’s. And the Mayor of Assisi and a group of nuns who take care of the elderly and the disabled, with who the story reaches its finale, as we receive a photographic vision of a country that never gives up by keeping its focus on the ideals of hope, and courage.
