- DirectorRossella SchillaciAn incisive portrait of life aboard a Sicilian fishing vessel, the film depicts the daily struggle of fishermen to earn a living in a harsh physical environment. Manning the 'Priamo' are Cola, the captain, Ahmed, the Tunisian first mate, two Italian engineers, and two Tunisian seamen. At sea for three weeks at a time, they fish off the coasts of Libya and Tunisia, sometimes outside the fishing limits and risking interception by the authorities. An intimate account of remoteness: after a few days on shore, the men leave their homes and families for a month. Night and day the nets are cast every four hours; the work is demanding and poorly paid; the quarters are cramped and uncomfortable; conflicts and prejudices surface amidst the roar of the engines and the sea. Beyond the horizon lies Africa, where immigrants embark for Europe, leaving their homes and families behind in the hope of finding a better life.

- DirectorAlessandro CassigoliCasey KauffmanStarsAlessandro CassigoliCasey KauffmanCasey, the new flatmate, was everything Alessandro was not. He was energetic and adventurous - even charismatic. But instead of being annoyed, Alessandro started to document this strange creature with his videocamera. They were in their early twenties and living in Rome...every experience together felt new and exciting. But when Casey moved to the Middle East to work as a TV journalist, Alessandro's world was cranked open even more. Alessandro started collecting Casey's footage and soon found himself immersed in his travels. There were smugglers in Mali, medics in Gaza, and snipers in Aleppo...the world beyond Alessandro's comfortable, stagnant life in the West became vast and real. Alessandro lived vicariously through Casey for years until both of them started to change. Thanks to Alessandro's pensive approach to life, Casey finally started to look inwards, while Alessandro found the courage to break out of his comfort zone. Drawn from 15 years of footage, The Things We Keep is both an intimate look at friendship, and a celebration of people's common humanity.
