una e mille
Two women study in the solitude of a library. The space gradually fills up with characters who emerge from the books, real or imaginary, part of themselves or the perception of the people around them… But how many characters are there? Sometimes one, sometimes none, sometimes a hundred thousand!
Inspired by the work of Luigi Pirandello (Italian writer, poet, novelist, short-story writer and playwright born in 1897, and author of “Uno, nessuno e centomila”). Pirandello worked on
the themes of the double and the perception of others, the conscious and the unconscious, social masks, in the cultural atmosphere that saw the birth of Jungian psychoanalysis.
