Sinopse
A social center in Florence, frequented by former junkies, ex-inmates, hobos and persons with psychatric issues. I have been going to this place for several years, as if I had been adopted into what seems a seaport – from which some disappear, perhaps returning a few months later, perhaps never coming back. Others disembark with their story. I was invited to make interviews. I suggested to imagine a movie to craft with them. For them. Each one is alone with his own experience. We only can imagine it. I evoked the story of Ulysses. Ulysses is the missing one, grappling with monsters and sirens, who comes back from the land of the deads. His name is nobody, he is the unkown giving his tale.
