Crespi d'Adda. Utopia of Work

Germany 2025 – 27′

Crespi d'Adda is a workers' village founded in the late 19th century, a timeless symbol of industrial utopia. This documentary is an invitation to explore the village as it is today, having been included on the UNESCO World Heritage list since the 1990s. The cotton mill has long ceased operation, yet here industrial and residential architecture blend, and the village still seems imbued with the paternalistic spirit of its founder.
