L'età della pietra
The stone age
Italia / 2010 / 28 min / Colour
This investigative documentary focuses on the world of porphyry extraction in the Autonomous Region of Trento. Allowing the workers, business owners, union organizers, and those responsible for public and private institutions to speak, the film reveals that porphyry extraction is a litmus test of provincial policy regarding land management. In a little valley are all of the contradictions of a vast world: strong powers, conniving companies, communities imprisoned by the insane exploitation of natural resources.
