Verde acciaio
Directed by
An investigation into an atypical park, where trees alternate with the iron and concrete of abandoned factories. This post-industrial landscape speaks to us through the voices of the people who inhabit it and who, by interacting with its spaces, redefine its identity.
The film is part of the RUTA project.

About the Movie Verde acciaio
RUTA is a summer school dedicated to training young authors and filmmakers in environmental documentary filmmaking. In the first edition of 2021, eight participants from very diverse backgrounds were selected to work in pairs over a two-month period. The production of the short films focused on exploring and applying the concept of sustainability in an urban context, specifically in the San Donato neighborhood of Turin.
RUTA is organized by the elvira Cultural Association, in collaboration with the A come Ambiente Museum and the CinemAmbiente Festival. This first edition was produced as part of the MAPS project, thanks to the support of the CivICa Call for Proposals from the Compagnia di San Paolo Foundation.
The school was coordinated by Beatrice Surano and Francesco Dragone, with the valuable assistance of Gaetano Capizzi, Angelo D’Agostino, Lorenzo Crippa, Irene Ameglio, Antonio Castagna, Lia Furxhi, Giovanni Mauriello, Sofia Nadalini, Giulia Scintu, Morena Terranova, Luca Vigliani and the technical support of Base Zero.
