Ferriera abbandonata (L'Usine à fer abandonnée)
Aglauco Casadio
1962 - 10 min - 35 mm - Couleur - Italie

In the Italsider de Voltri factory (Genoa), men busily manufactured steel and iron. Today the site is abandoned and silent. On these fascinating ruins, Aglauco Casadio has made an experimental film of extreme formal purity. Mario Vulpiani's cinematography breaks with documentary realism, integrating entire sequences of negative images, and the concrete music of Sandro Brugnolini plunges us into a decomposing universe.
