Annalisa's Lighthouse, a bullet becomes a source of light

The third day of awards for the National School Competition “Il Faro di Annalisa”, dedicated to secondary schools, was held this morning. The title of the day was “Space for the young”.

Among the winning schools, the Perlasca Institute of Vallesabbia (BS) stood out in particular, whose students created the prototype of a bullet-shaped torch, which lights up and becomes a light to illuminate young people, and the Gallotta scientific high school of Eboli (SA), which created a multimedia project that equated Annalisa to the Dirac equation, dealing with the topic of organ donation with extreme delicacy.

Particularly moving was the connection with the story of Addam Jendoubi, a young man from Forcella who recently passed away following a fatal accident, whose organs were donated to save 7 other lives, as happened with Annalisa.

Adam, a few years before dying, had contributed to the change in life of his brother Habib, who was released from prison to follow the path of cinema proposed to him by Adam, who in the meantime had played “Aucelluzzo” in the film “La paranza dei bambini” inspired by the book by Roberto Saviano.

And Saviano himself was the first to promote Adam's memory, remembering him with a post as "the face of the new Naples", who spoke "Forcellano" despite his half-Tunisian and half-Polish origins.

His brother Habib, who attended the ceremony with his father, declared with sincere emotion that he wants to continue to carry forward Adam's memory and ensure that his story can become an example of the choice of legality and social redemption for all the young people of Naples, and not only.

The event was attended by Benigno Casale of USR Campania, Diego Belliazzi for the Polis Foundation, Rosa Maiello for the University of Naples Parthenope, Amedeo Colella and Alan De Luca. The latter intervened to award the nominations in Neapolitan language presented by the IIS Sannino-De Cillis and the ITIS Alessandro Volta, respectively a poem and a rap text set to music by the kids, who were enthusiastic about the message produced: “Shoot me, shoot me cà spieco 'o fierro… po' muurì 'o cuorpo, ma l'anema è eterna”.
