Story

In the terraced settlement of Prato Pernice, between rock faces and holiday flats, caretaker Nino looks after the sporadically inhabited rooms. The project combines observations of his daily work with subtly staged scenes in which amateur actors appear as temporary residents. Routines, fleeting encounters and smouldering conflicts overlap between the strict geometry of the architecture and the summery inertia of the communal pool – and paint a picture of a fragmented community.
