The first wave - Milan in the time of Covid-19
The choral work of 57 directors and filmmakers who tell stories of Milan at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Covid-19 pandemic hit Czech society hard between 2020 and 2022.

Together with the three main actors, we are reminded of how fragile our personal and social lives can be when faced with the “big nothing” of a malignant disease.
