HABITAT – NOTE PERSONALI
HABITAT – PERSONAL NOTES
/ 2014 / 55 min / Colour
A film about the city of L’Aquila after the earthquake, a catastrophic event that for many became a lasting, daily experience: a non-place that survives as an alienating space, without structure, without roots. For five years after the tragedy, Emiliano Dante documented his former tent mates, Alessio and Paolo. The former is a squatter who became a realtor, the latter was a property owner who, finding himself with nothing left to lease, devotes himself to painting. This is a personal look at the alienating reality of the C.A.S.E. project, a bleak narration of human and territorial displacement.
Emiliano Dante
Born in L’Aquila in 1974, he teaches the history of contemporary art at the Università di Cassino and the Università dell’Aquila. He directed the Festival del Documentario d’Abruzzo in Pescara. He began as a photographer and began working in film after experience in the worlds of painting, theatre, and music. He made his directing debut in 2003 with a series of short films, The Home Sequence Series.
