Locked Down: Devi Smetterla Di Avere Paura (2021)

"Falling is not a failure". Seneca says it, Tiziana ignores it. Tiziana (Francesca Di Maggio) fell, like so many of us, on a raw failure called Covid. This short film is a journey through her weird daily life, where the traces of a bitter past are gradually pigeonholed into the plot of a puzzle, leading to meet Anna (Carla De Girolamo): a merciless and steady mirror of a present not lagged behind. Confrontation is a funny fight, a rough exam, an honest discomfort, solved in the most unexpected of solutions. Because "Failure is remaining where you fell".
