When we think about science often we focus on the big discoveries: the Higgs Boson! Gravitation-
al waves! Sometimes maybe we forget about what happens in between: there’s a bunch of people
doing the systematic work. At the border between Switzerland and France there’s a citadel called
CERN, a global community of thousands of people working together towards a common objective.
How can they work for years – sometimes decades – as a unique and enormous brainpower?
What are they looking for?

De Seta portrayed the people he knew by having exposed himself to, at first. He taught us that
looking the other is looking together with him, by transforming our dreams and memories. Simone
Massi’s film, an animated tail, is inspired by one of the most important Italian directors, who
passed away in 2011. It has the aim to recall the deepest meaning of “exposing” ourselves to the
world: looking at it and being able to transform along with it.

After twenty years since one of the most dramatic days of the Former Yugoslavia conflicts, the de-
stroy of the old bridge, also symbol of the city, and after almost ten years since the reconstruction
of it, by the international community, seven different characters live their lives in today’s Mostar,
without meeting them selves. What they have in common, anyhow, are memory splinters strongly
coming back from the past and with which they have to deal.

Marseille seen from a little bar near the Vieux Port. Mon Bar is like home for regulars, a refuge
and a stage where they stop over every day. The film follows their paths, derails and returns to
the same place, like a piece of cork floating in the surf.

The Mutoid Waste Company arrived in Santarcangelo in 1990. Since then the Mutoid’s camp be-
came a fixed destination for all European travellers. Mutonia is a temporary city, a village inside
a village, from which original proposals of sustainability and creativity emerge, a place with an
intense and at the same time fragile way of inhabiting and living.

Ibrahim, Ram and Raju are three rickshaw pullers in Kolkata – a city held together by its agony,
which has the spasmodic vitality of something that is nearing its end. These men are called “Hu-
man Horses” because of the work they do. Actually, they are the last of the lasts, a stubborn proof
of the true essence of human dignity.

Temporary Cities is series of documentary films that the ZimmerFrei group has been making since
2010. They are portraits of cities filmed in small areas, which could span one particular part of the
city, or a neighbourhood, a square or even a single bench, where the main theme is the residents
and temporary users’ perception and use of public space and the way they inhabit and transform
it. At the moment there are seven city portraits: Brussels (Belgium), Copenhagen (Denmark), Bu-
dapest (Hungary), Mutonia (Italy), Marseilles (France), Terschelling Island (The Netherlands) and
Chalon-sur-Saône (France).

The documentaries have been selected to several national and international festivals. The series has been
selected in contest by Film Fest Gent 2015 (Gent, Belgium), Biografilm Festival 2014 (Bologna, Italy) > ‘WHAT’S
CULTURE’ AWARD and Arquiteturas Film Festival 2014 (Lisboa, Portugal)
