Memoriae Causa
Carlo Scarpa e il complesso monumentale di Brion 1969-78
Riccardo De Cal
Italy, 2007, 48'
Synopsis
The skilled craftsmen who helped Carlo Scarpa to create the extraordinary monument of the Brion Tomb, in the De Cal film parade under the eyes of the spectators. Everyone has a fragment of truth to share, a story to tell. Mysterious forms arise from the greenery of a countryside bathed in morning light. And it is precisely light that guides the exploration of the Brion Tomb, illuminating its beauty and the complex symbology inherent in every form, every function, every singular device.
