Giordano
To imagine the world is to take part in its constant re-creation.
Giordano, or the lightning trajectory of a 16th-century whistleblower.
History is lived in the present time. We follow this man from his early youth until he was 52, the age he had reached at the time of his execution. Formed by the Dominicans of Naples, a universal genius little known, an unknown link between Copernicus and Galileo, a phoenix eternally reborn, Giordano Bruno, young and old, tells himself. It is the sincere, passionate and unfiltered testimony of a dissident subject to the death penalty for having expressed loudly and clearly his revolutionary vision of the place of the human being in the universe.
In a world where freedom of thought is threatened by censorship of all kinds—political, ideological, religious, and communitarian, —while it is known that the absolute necessity of a holistic vision of living organisms is essential for the survival of the planet, and we are aware that a revolution in our way of being in the world urgently needs to be made, Giordano Bruno’s words and career are extremely relevant and up-to-date.”
