Frammento 53 by Federico Lodoli and Carlo Gabriele Tribbioli. With a talk by Federico Lodoli and Carlo Gabriele Tribbioli. 23.2.2023, 6:00 pm. Via del Vascello 35, 00152 Roma

Fondazione Baruchello invites, on February 23, 2023, at the screening of the film Frammento 53 (2015), which will then be discussed with authors Federico Lodoli and Carlo Gabriele Tribbioli, and featured from February 20 to February 24 in the program of films accompanying the exhibition “Aprire la storia”, open until February 24, 2023.

Francesco Lodoli and Carlo Gabriele Tribbioli’s documentary Frammento 53 recalls with its own title the idea of war; in fact, it refers to Heraclitus’ fragment of the same name, according to which “conflict is the father of all things”. Structured as a series of interviews with seven mercenary warriors, the film tells us about the armed clashes that took place in Liberia, but above all, the intent is also to investigate the historical dimension and the archetype of war, as seen by these people as a necessary and universal dimension.
