- This film tells the story of a small environmental miracle that occurred in the Sardinian sea. Starring Gianni Usai, who had worked at the FIAT Mirafiori factory where in the 70's he took part to the worker's protests, before returning to his home town in Sardinia to become a lobster fisherman with a challenging goal: make a living from the sea without killing it. In the following years the increasing decline of the Mediterranean fish stocks became apparent also in Sardinia, and led Usai to seek the help of the University of Cagliari to jointly design the first recovery project of the spiny lobster in the Mediterranean. This unusual partnership between science and fishing practices produced impressive results with an increase of over 550% of the lobster biomass within the protected areas. "At the end of the 90's" said Gianni Usai "we realized that we were close to the extinction of our lobsters, mainly because of trawling and also because many fishermen kept fishing baby lobsters without respecting the minimum landing size. In only a few years the catches dropped from 13 to 1 tons. We had to do something and so we tested the recovery project. Today, our fishermen are finally realizing that they can turn from predators into guardians of the sea." This documentary uses a visual language that captures the deep commitment of the fishermen that truly care about the future of our oceans and of those that depend on it.

- Stage portrays a human rotation inside the courtyard of the Taman Sari, an Indonesian palace from the 18th century, a well-known tourist attraction in Yogyakarta. Most of the visitors, once discovered the vaguely Escherian patio, they activate a sort of spontaneous communitarian choreography of entrances and disappearances. Everybody wait for their moment to reach the platform in the center of the stairs to take a picture; or they stay in the external perimeter to photograph who rose to the center. Like ghosts of the contemporary world, the transiting people digitally stop their presence and then vanish.

- Fiumara d'Arte is a non-place per excellence where art lives, where art dies, where the art is killed by the landscape and Vice Versa in an exponential duel that doesn't see winners nor losers but multiplies itself as a never-ending fractal. In this Safari Park of Pirandellian meta-physic that is hollywoodian in its dimensions and Pasolinian as well, in its abandoned matters, the trick of multiplying and of the labyrinth is applied. The game of the mirrors and of the infinite geometry that is born from the liquid element of the sea, it becomes hairy cell to devolve into an almost ethno-psychedelic kaleidoscope.
- A visual, narrative and musical travel trough the Italian Experimental Theatre Festival (edition 1998) from Sant'Arcangelo di Romagna.
- A man and a woman reach a wild beach carrying a large blank canvas. He is a painter with a brush and a paint that leave no trace . She seeks inspiration by walking with a telescope. In the sea there is a small fishing boat with three fishermen , the oldest scanning the horizon and throws something in the waves , others roll up their networks . All are found in a shed in the evening for dinner until a storm will blow the light revealing a surprise .
- A submarine introspection where the depth of the sea is not only the expanded unconscious maker of oneiric visions. It is rather a playful place made by audiovisual calambour and ballets. Between acid colored expressionism and hypnotic apparitions of abyssal creatures the question is: are we in or out the aquarium?
- The desirable and perhaps utopistic recovery of the former Anas parking lot in Catanzaro as a multimedia museum of contemporary art; this is the pragmatic and provocative proposal of Prof. Andrea La Porta.
- The idea at the base of the project is to let cohabit two apparently opposite worlds: the old, orally handed sardinian chants with an unstructured serial aesthetic very close to the mysticism of the Tibetan mandalas and the digital fractal decomposition of the space. The research tents to re create a world of abstract images that nevertheless shelter the elements of recognizability of the singers. They are portrayed almost like glass icons of an Escher like cathedral window, or through a mirror-like pop lens. The result is a moment of absolute suspension and classic-like estrangement. The digital attitude is, yes, used to transform the shape and the body of the singers but with an extreme cure in the attempt of translating and respecting that ancient ancestral feeling that this singing recalls.
- Caparezza isolates itself from the group of tourists with whom he's traveling until it gets lost, kidnapped by the immanence of the place. The group leader, a young and worried priest, sets out on his trail and gets lost too. Caparezza meets the devil in a cave, wears his habit but refuses his mild temptations and gives himself to the hermitage. The suggested exchange of identity continues until you see the devil in the shoes of the priest and the latter with a backpack on his shoulder to hitchhike. The story is inspired by the structures of ancient oriental tales where men, priests and animals exchanged clothes for curiosity of knowledge. From a stylistic point of view, the authors have amused themselves by imagining Jesus Christ Superstar who meets Gianni and Pinotto and Jodorowsky.

- Nada is an orderly who wanders around doing small jobs in a paused circus. There is no one besides her and some animals, and she's suspended in a psycho-temporal limbo. It is an opportunity for a flight of the mind, a dreamlike reflection on oneself.
- The video is a gallery of human beings whose eyes have been replaced by dreamlike images and personal stories as in an animated collage. All of them shelter its own inner world, each face contains its emotional constellation. After the climax of the song, the faces regain their eyes and together with Nada they continue to invoke rather than sing those lost eyes.
- An American car stops in the middle of a desert area, behind the wheel an impatient woman with a cigar in her mouth. In the land there is a solid closed door planted in the middle of nowhere. Pollina exits the car and enters the door catapulting into another psychotemporal reality. He is now in the hall of a castle where there is a assembly of elderly scholars assisted by young students. Subliminal guide of the dream journey is Franco Battiiato, high priest who follows the story by opening and closing an ancient volume at the beginning and end of the clip. The singer will act as a destabilizing element, harbinger of the subsequent 'revolt' of the girls.

Capa Rezza, peremptory and resigned, will try to satisfy every need, not without resorting to the altar of his ancestor 'figaro' too.
