International title:
Posidonia. The Seabed of the Metropolis
Posidonia is a film that seeks to recount the relationship between the (humanised) coast of a metropolis and its seabed, and the industrialisation of the surrounding area. The personal story of an underwater adventurer who, by an accident of history finds himself plumbing the depths of the seabed around Naples; add to this the transformation of a coastline that in less than a century has proven to be a potential gathering point for civilisation, science and technology. Posidonia is a journey through the resistances of Nature, acting like sand in an engine.
