| Our intention is, as always, that the themes
of the images of the past reflect the ¨new‚. Immigrations, ethnic
problems, racism, colonialism, neo-colonialism. Frammenti Elettrici
consists of archive material on social discomfort, on the differences
between ¨human species‚. Meeting the Other. We travel again
over continents and populations examined in the early 20th century
through the films of private individuals travelling in Asia
and Africa in the early 70s. Pakistan, Afghanistan, Kashmir,
Burma, Indonesia, Ivory Coast, Senegal. This work‚s aim is to
dismantle the folkloristic propaganda of the ¨tourist development‚
in some countries before they suffer devastations, wars, massacres.
Countries struck by the disaster of the tourist invasion. A
work of comparison in the distance on the condition of the world.
