Movie

Architecture student Bruna wants to renovate the convent located in the center of Piazza Magione in Palermo. This means dealing with the joys and contradictions of a square that is above all a community: there are the people who live in the buildings around it, there are young people who gather there, and there is also an association that takes care of the place and the events that are organized there. From a situation of apparent simplicity, Bruna, however, gets lost in the unsolvable enigma of bureaucracies and in the tension of an ambivalent risk: would a renovation be valorisation or denaturalization?
