N A T U R A L E – IL TEATRO DELLE ARIETTE


Directed by: Livia Giunti (Italy, France, 2018, 58’)


Paola Berselli e Stefano Pasquini sono grandi oratori e il loro teatro è fondato sul racconto orale, sulla trasmissione di esperienze e storie personali. Da anni si raccontano con i gesti e soprattutto con le parole. Sono artisti che hanno portato la loro vita individuale e di coppia in scena, che hanno trasformato la loro cucina in un palcoscenico e il palcoscenico nella loro cucina.
