Little actions, dreamy or melancholy gazes, proud stares. Little pictures of people coming from who knows where and going to an equally unknown place. Family photographs from some forgotten period. And the wait for something that may arrive or could also disappoint us.

Transforming what is common into something exceptional: this is the meaning we want to give our performance by highlighting the little things, an embrace, a greeting, a look. This is an atlas of the everyday gestures in the lives of each and every one of us, lives that have made the history not written in books: history with a small “h”.

Not all of us are heroes, but heroically we all go through our terrestrial wanderings, with its joys and sufferings. These are stories of men and women, young and old, that – together – form a country.
