Oltre Ischia
“An uncommon person is someone who does something unique, but in truth, everyone has their own unique habits. So, in the end, we all belong to this ‘uncommon’ crowd."
Second-year high school student, Ischia
On the island of Ischia, there are 60,000 inhabitants. The island is divided into 6 municipalities, but 4 residents have chosen to live out of the ordinary. At school, we were asked to talk about our island, and we decided to tell their stories.
Students from the 2° B Liceo Giorgio Buchner High School/ 3° A IIS Cristofaro Mennella High School.
The film originated from a participatory documentary workshop, led by director Luca Ciriello, involving students from IIS Cristofaro Mennella and Liceo Giorgio Buchner on the island of Ischia (Naples).
A film produced with the support of the Ministry of Education and Merit (MIM) and the Ministry of Culture (MiC), as part of the National Plan for Cinema and Images for Schools — “Visioni Fuori Luogo,” in collaboration with Lunia Film.
