Memoria del lampo
by Riccardo Giacconi
Italy, 2026, 71’, color
Screenplay: Riccardo Giacconi, Sibilla Scinti Roger
Sibilla, a radio reporter, travels to a small town in central Italy to make an audio documentary. There, in 1982, a young woman had been killed, in an act of apparently inexplicable violence. Through voices and sounds, Sibilla evokes the ghosts of a past event, recording the last reverberations of the victim’s memory.
