Is it possible to imprison nature?
Or will humanity witness nature taking over?

These are some of the questions that will be explored in the short films presented by the Vertigo Film Fest on January 24.
Each story will lead us to a different reflection on the relationship between humanity and nature, immersing us in fantastic and abstract settings where reality shifts according to the ideas being presented.

We will journey through France, the Netherlands, and Italy to see how, in different parts of the world, the delicate balance between our surroundings and ourselves is perceived and experienced. Additionally, we will have the chance to discuss these themes with the director of one of the films being screened.

All of this will take place in the charming setting of Cinemino: a cinema hall, a neighborhood bar, and, above all, a cornerstone of Milan’s cultural scene.
