Life and Numbers – Remember Four things you can't recover: The Stone after the throw
The mirror, the stone and the new things

the mirror, the stone and the new things How is it living in a village in the inland of Lucania during the period in which emigrants go back to work to the North or abroad, when not even tourists are around? For years, misery has forced entire families to escape somewhere else in search of fortune; a great sense of desolation and abandonment has fallen over these places, and the world seems to have forgotten them, or maybe not even ever taken them into consideration. Nevertheless, it is exactly in this place that we will show how redemption is really possible. We will try to give people the chance to interact between themselves to positively rediscover the potentials of the community. Our experiment will be doing it through a great movie-event which might upset the status-quo in this village. „e Mirror, the Stone and new things“ (original: Lo specchio, la pietra e le cose nuove) is an experience which wants to mix theatre, cinema and community life in Trevico, a small and impervious village of Irpinia, a mountain region in the inner south of Italy. With the people living there, we would like to realize a theatre performance which will be enacted during christmas holidays; contemporaneous we will shoot a film with the same protagonists. e keyword will be: participation. Protagonists, residents and the crew will collaborate day by day to build an horizontal, open and fascinating dialogue to reach a satisfying, inspiring outcome of the experience for everybody participating. WHAT WE NEED We will stay at „Casa della Paesologia“ in Trevico from october 2015 until the end of the year. We are a small and independent production so our financial resources are really limitated. To reach the best success of this project, in every respect, it will be fundamental to involve as many people as possible. Everyone can help us the way he/she wants to depending on his/ her possibilites as well: Sending us some food, lending us some material, participating in crowdfunding or come to visit us and share our daily commitments! ENTROTERRA FILM EntroterraFilm is an international filmmaker collective born in Leipzig, Germany. It aims to tell hidden, unknown storries or talk about off-path-places through the audiovisual media: from the small, heavily reachable inland region to the darkest corner of metropolis.
