Sangue e cemento
One year after the earthquake that devastated Abruzzo, Sangue e Cemento retraces recent causes and remote responsibilities of those who built poorly to save on materials and techniques, of those who had to control but did not, of the administrators who favored speculation at the expense of the safety of citizens, who paid a price of 299 victims. Interviews and testimonies to seismologists, geologists, territorial and construction technicians, lawyers and judges enrich this film-document that was made by Gruppo Zero, a collective of journalists, filmmakers and communicators who produce investigative documentaries for correct information and free from manipulation.

The Day The Series Stopped
On Oct. 17, 1989, at 5:04 p.m. PT, soon after Al Michaels and Tim McCarver started the ABC telecast for Game 3 of the World Series between the San Francisco Giants and the Oakland Athletics, the ground began to shake beneath Candlestick Park.

But after the 6.9 Loma Prieta earthquake rolled through, bringing death and destruction, the Bay Area pulled together, and baseball took a backseat.

There's no definitive separation as long as there is memory'. Since the Tsunami hit the northern part of Japan's coast in 2011, more than 20 thousand people lost their lives, and many others are still missing. As time went by the families of the victims abandoned all hope and stopped looking for their loved ones. However, this is the story of two men that are still fully committed to their respective searching activities. Even though their backgrounds are extremely different, both share a strong force of will and firmly wish to keep alive the memories of the ones that went missing. Perseverance is what pushed an ex-convict to look for redemption by helping the victims' families to find the remains of their loved ones, and perseverance is what brought a bus driver to start to dive in order to search for his wife.
