Valentina Reggio

An unconventional day in Nicola’s life, which begins at the eye doctor’s and takes him around the city, his eye bandaged like a pirate’s. At home, the bakery or in his analyst’s office, the various stops on his wanderings are part of a much more complex journey however, a tightly-woven fabric in which there is the slightest of snags; a snag which stretches and unravels to finally take on a new shape. It is that awareness of being homosexual, and yet never having accepted it.
