YEAST

Lievito (original title)

Synopsis

A summer camp, a judo dojo, a theater workshop in a contemporary art museum. Relations between groups of children and adolescents and their adult guides; teaching methods and educational practices; materials and symbolic rules; relationships between the form of places and behaviors; the reverberation of what is learned in everyone's daily lives. An old super-eight projector, faded images on the wall, a puppet theater. The relationship between pupil and teacher, the transmission of knowledge, the experiences of a past that is only apparently distant in Naples, a city where school has never been the primary source of learning, nor has played a significant role in learning how to live.
