Itâ??s a work about the suburbs of Rome built in the years 70/80 with the housing plans. Nowadays these districts seem to be abandoned and forgotten. The institutions say they have understood any mistake. They promise more green, more roads, more shopping centers. Also promise to tear down the bridges of the most degraded Laurentino 38, provide for the problem of drug dealing in the towers of Tor Bella Monaca, to secure the crumbling palaces of Tor Sapienza. But nothing happens and all is silent. Paralyzed the people expect that someone will remember them.
