'Fa Ancora Caldo Qui Giù' is an ode to the calm period that follows the summer rush in the southern Italian region of Apulia.
Filmed on 8mm, this short fashion film juxtaposes the tourist noise typical of the warmer months with the peace and silence of September, when local inhabitants gradually reclaim their space.
The suggestive location PesceTrullo by Gaetano Pesce represents the familiar dimension that Esther, the main character, reconnects with once the whole circus is over.
The characters wear a collection by CSM student Alice Morell Evans, featuring upcycled materials sourced from the furniture of her grandparents’ home.
