The decline of Santiago

After the opening address by Alessandro Cherry Cerato, Antonio Piazza and Emanuele Tumolo will debunk the myth of travel as a life-changing experience, starting with the Camino de Santiago, which for both should have been important but instead went as journeys often do: badly, crooked, and with the constant feeling of having done everything wrong.

Through anecdotes, misunderstandings, and comical slideshows that poke fun at the great clichés of travel, from "spiritual" photos taken specifically for Instagram to guides who "know an authentic place" a forty-minute bus ride away, the show broadens its gaze to all journeys: the dreamed-of ones, the impromptu ones, the ones that promise enlightenment and only give you blisters.

An ironic and unedifying tale of what really happens when you leave: you don't come back better, you just come back more tired, poorer, and with a much lower opinion of yourself.
