Some of them even exist in Europe: spaces where attractions, social contradictions and geographic peculiarities are gathered together. Because such places are unknown to most of us, Borders of Europe traces a journey to forgotten but fascinating corners of the European continent. These marginal areas possess a secret beauty, an intimate &#8220;borderline&#8221; poetry. Director Corso Salani\u2019s six-stage journey leads him to discover uncertain, forgotten realities. He shows us particular contexts and controversial situations, fascinating for their \u201cborderline\u201d qualities. In some cases, we discover a bridge between different cultures and worlds. Under various pretexts, each journey also involves a different female guide. Together, they represent the multiple faces of femininity. These strongwilled, stubborn, intelligent women are simultaneously travelling companions, accomplices, and even a mirror through which he observes himself. They are sensitive and complex creatures, investigated and laid bare by the movie camera, which captures their skin, mutable as a landscape, reflecting the secret beauty of things.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Borders of Europe #1 Ceuta and Gibraltar<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Original title:\u00a0<strong>Confini d&#8217;Europa #1 Ceuta e Gibilterra<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>a FILM by\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/vivofilm.wp.flyer.it\/?p=110\">CORSO SALANI<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a place at the end of Europe where, in just a few square kilometers, one finds insoluble political problems, territorial claims, customs inflexibility, economic conflict, and even the threat of war. This sort of thing may be normal in other parts of the world, but these territories belong to two Western European allies, Great Britain and Spain. The UK owns tiny Gibraltar, which is surrounded by Spain. Spain insists Gibraltar is and has always been Spanish. Across the Straits, in Africa, Spain itself owns the city of Ceuta, which is entirely surrounded by Morocco\u2026 In Ceuta and Gibraltar it\u2019s up to a young actress from Madrid to discover how life works in such peculiar places. Her task is to collect hints and clues in order to build a fictional character for a hypothetical film to be shot in the border zone.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Il flusso interminabile del turismo di massa sembra aver raggiunto ormai qualsiasi destinazione possibile<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":741,"featured_media":6314,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[],"coauthors":[94],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/vivofilm.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/118"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/vivofilm.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/vivofilm.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vivofilm.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/741"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vivofilm.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=118"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/vivofilm.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/118\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7688,"href":"https:\/\/vivofilm.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/118\/revisions\/7688"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vivofilm.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6314"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/vivofilm.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=118"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vivofilm.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=118"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vivofilm.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=118"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vivofilm.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=118"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
