My Place is Here

World premiere: Visions du Réel 2021 / Grand Angle

Lombardy, Italy – March 2020. A small camera team enters the wards of the hospital of Brescia, that is dramatically facing the first pandemic peak of COVID-19. It respectfully observes moments of what is the new and partly unknown daily activity in it. But most of all, they show the intimacy that is created between patients and medical staff, beyond the inevitable isolation barriers. Moments of uncertainty, pain, fragility and humility intertwine and are especially expressed through the unspoken details that hold us somewhere between symphony and tragedy.
