ARegional preview of “Voices from the Silence”, the documentary on the hermit and ascetic experience in Italy arrives in Naples on Wednesday 31 October at 21.00:XNUMX pm at the Delle Palme cinema. For the occasion, directors Joshua Wahlen and Alessandro Seidita will be present in the room to present the work, and will participate in a final debate at the end of the screening.

With Swami Atmananda, Fra Bernardino, Giancarlo Bruni, Fra Cristiano, Fr. Dalmasso, Father Daniele, Pietro Lentini, M. Simonetta, Sister Mirella, Sister Paola, Fréderic Vermorel, the documentary is the winner of the Life call announced by Infinity and presented at the twenty-first edition of CinemAmbiente in Turin. “Voices from the Silence”, a few months after its preview, has already entered the official selections of numerous national and international film festivals, meeting with growing interest from the public and professionals. The result of a long journey along the Italian peninsula, the documentary collects within it the stories of the new Italian hermits. Their testimonies, built in silence and meditation, become here an invitation to become aware of the responsibility we have towards others, towards ourselves and towards the surrounding nature, suggesting new paths and new ways of inhabiting the world.
The documentary, created through a successful crowdfunding campaign, sees the collaboration of the Piemonte Film Commission, PdB, Terra Nuova Edizione and Italia che Cambia, among others.
The meeting in Naples is part of a larger program: a five-month tour, started on September 10, which is registering an extraordinary turnout of public and sold-out in many cities in Italy (Milan, Florence, Perugia, Bologna, Verona ...).
