gEARS, a factory fairy tale – Carlo Magrì

Dir. Carlo Magrì, Italy 2023

 

A factory, if safe, can be transformed into an “enchanting” place.
The noise of machinery becomes, for the little protagonist, real music and the movement of gears suggests light dance steps to her.
gEARS is a fairy tale that transforms workspace into the most beautiful place.
