School: the only protagonist
22 October – 3 December 2020
Stories and books about schools: teachers, students, desks, recreation, crying in bathrooms, best friends and conflicts between groups. All of this is the school that distance learning can never replace. This is why we will enjoy listening to the voices of writers whose stories are set in schools, among screams and whispers, discomfort and school uniforms.
Italy seen from school desks
- Thursday 22 October 2020 at 18:30 - 20:00
A journey through the schools, from the Apennine villages to the outskirts of the big cities, to listen to the reality of Italy in places which are only apparently marginal, to closely observe the difficulties and resources of the coexistence with foreigners, to get to know the new Italians, and much more. An eccentric perspective to better understand the present and the challenges of the future.

With his trademark sensitivity, Enrico Galiano will reassure all those who worry about their future that making mistakes is necessary in order to grow and that every error is nothing more than a step on the exciting and absorbing path to self-enlightenment that is life.
