Breaths: Breathe in the Dark

Original · Breaths: Respiri nel buio

On 12th October 2010, three young University researchers started to shoot a documentary about the Orfanotrofio delle Grazie, an orphanage closed 25 years earlier because of an arson which caused the dead of 10 children, the director of the institute and his assistant. On October 15th, three days later, the Police came to the abandoned orphanage, alerted by the teacher who coordinated the work of the three researchers. A rescuer discovered unearthed in the boiler room, hidden under a table, the camera used by the three guys. The dramatic images recorded in the videocassette provide documentary evidence of the last hours spent by the three guys in that damned place.
