(ANSA) - ROME, OCTOBER 24 - A relaxed and available Gabriele Salvatores, reached remotely at home where he is in isolation for Covid, tells of his OUT OF THE ERA SPRING which passes today at the Rome Festival.
A documentary that collects the videos sent by thousands of Italians during the lockdown
These are some of the things said by the director in his long interview.
NATURE AND US.
Guccini said in 'We will not be there': "From the woods to the sea life returns, and the earth will still be populated but we will not be there, we will not be there".
For this reason, at the beginning of the film, I put pictures of nature and those of the animals that took over the city during the quarantine.
The fact is that we are the real parasites of the world.
Climate conditions, intensive farming, deforestation are believed to be linked to what happened.
It would be nice if, before then, we learned something, but it won't happen: we always put power and money forward.
POLICY.
I get very angry with the deniers and with our politicians in general.
If you are a politician there must be an invocation and so it is not possible that someone is put at the head of an ASL just because he has a party card.
Certain images of some politicians are truly terrible and this aside from the sides.
You are a politician and you should set a good example, as my father used to say.
Their communication is never clear: they tell you one thing and then they do another.
In the East, things are better because there is greater trust in politicians, we are instead individualists.
POVERTY AND COVID.
Covid is a 'level', but up to a certain point.
It is always the poor, the weakest people who pay.
Tears come to my eyes looking at people on the street, the homeless.
SOCIAL ANGER.
What do I fear most today?
The social rage that could arise from all of this.
And I am also afraid that the guard will be lowered towards Covid.
Who, among the men of power, opinion makers, journalists and wholesalers gives a wrong message, I hope that sooner or later, he will be punished.
