Orto per orto
Children from the Marconi Institute decide to document the school instructional vegetable garden and, thanks to a studio, begin to discover many vegetable gardens around the school building. Hand in hand, they get to know people, farming methods, and territories, and come to understand the memories embedded in their own neighborhood and city. A little interesting fact: the documentary was presented at the end of the school year after a short concert. The Marconi Institute orchestra performed playing instruments made from vegetables!
Short film from the Secondary School Institute “Guglielmo Marconi” in Terni. Directed by Riccardo Palladino.
