Lagunaria

Lagunaria

A voice from a distant future tells of a vanished city that was once among the most famous in the world, Venice. Amidst legends, rituals and hearsay, the narrator describes its daily life made of boats and its profound relationship with the lagoon surrounding it. Did that city ever exist? Was it ever inhabited, or it was a tourist park? Did it survive the floods and the plagues? Have its inhabitants managed to find a new way of living together? The result is an indefinite tale of a unique and fragile city that is slowly disappearing, suffocated by tourism and threatened by climate change that is putting its survival at risk.
