ELABORATE FORME DI SOLITUDINE
Tony Laudadio
Attorno ad Andrea, 17 anni e mezzo, si muove una girandola di destini impazziti, che si intrecciano senza saperlo. Cosa lega quindi la bellissima dottoressa Luana Costa a Gipo, e costui a Clemente, e questi a sua volta, a Alessia, o Gabriella, o a Luca?

QUEL LUOGO A ME PROIBITO
Elisa Ruotolo
In a South which is still archaic at times, a girl tries to grow up despite a suffocating family environment, where every gesture and every word is ruthlessly measured on social judgment; where joy, desire, knowledge of oneself and one's body are forbidden places.
