( Piombo Fuso )
Stefano Savona
2009 - 80 min - Vidéo - Couleur - Italie
It's January 6, 2009, the eleventh day of Israeli attack on the Gaza Strip. Witnesses have been unable to penetrate the Strip to date. It's been impossible to force the air-tight block to the international press imposed by occupying forces.
All of a sudden, as if by chance, a tiny crack in the impermeable defence system occurs, and a very small number of people manage to get in. Amongst them, a director with a camera.
This film is about what that camera was able to film across the border, the simple tale, using those images, of daily life during the last days of operation "Cast Lead".
