ACROSS WALLS – Backstage

The backstage of the “FunKino – Across Walls” project. In the spring of 2022, director Alessio Genovese and sociologist Daniele Saguto entered the Ucciardone Prison House in Palermo with the intention of involving a group of inmates in the writing of a feature film on the prison/society relationship through the use of the participatory methodology Funkino.

Documentary filmmaker Miriam Cossu Sparagano Ferraye witnessed the birth of the subject of the film whose plot focuses on the difficult father-son relationship in a prison context. Zabbara is continuing to work in the prison to bring the film to life with the involvement of the inmates, the first authors of this story.
