A story of destruction and rebirth, the one that finds its frame in the Gairo devastated by the flood of 1951 : it is precisely in the streets of the ancient village that the memories and emotions of a woman and her story take shape. A cross-section of present-day Ogliastra that intersects with that of the early years of the last century.
It is the short "Su Pissiafoi" (the Sardinian translation of the scissor-cutter insect), written by the actor and screenwriter Luca Lobina and directed by Luca Valdes, with the award-winning soundtrack by Gabriele Di Girolamo: the work was almost entirely filmed between Gairo and the center abandoned after the tragedy of '51 , and the other protagonists Damiano Scattu and Debora Ascedu also arrive from the town, as well as children and extras.
Just in Gairo, last Saturday, there was the first double screening, which went sold-out. Saturday 20, however, will be the turn of Cagliari : "Su Pissiafoi" will arrive at the Notorius cinema in Piazza L'Unione Sarda, with another double screening that will be presented by the actor Simeone Latini. From Monday 22, however, the film " will land” in the halls of the island .
