Os Argonautas. Vengo a prenderti.

Status: Completed

Synopsis

The video is an act of truth and solidarity with the cause of five men and a dog who went out to sea and never returned. The song written by Os Argonautas, the small film shot by Donatella Altieri and the book written by Gianni Lannes, are the convinced and sincere testimony of those who do not resign. It is the desperate need to bury their bodies which, deliberately abandoned at sea, continue to ask for Justice for a truth hidden and denied by the arrogance of power. This little document does not have the strength of arms, nor the weight of power. It is unable to condition the paths of justice, nor to determine its choices. It is only a caress to the gaze of Leo, a faithful and generous dog, who did not want to abandon his masters even in death. It is a little goodbye kiss to the five men, silent workers of the sea, who wander invisibly in the immensity of the waters. It is a tender hug to their family members who have frozen their memories for fear of erasing their presence. It is a sad lament whispered to the conscience of those who can, those who know and those who must.
