Projection of “In this world”

The Gomitolorosa Association invites the screening of “In this world“, the documentary film by Anna Kauber that accompanies us in the life of the pastor women.

The now famous film will be hosted in Biella on Wednesday 9 October at 17.30 in the Auditorium Hall of the Sella Foundation, on the occasion of the Seventh Birthday of Gomitolorosa, an association committed to promoting knitting to promote the well-being of patients undergoing medical therapies as well as solidarity towards weaker subjects, leveraging the recovery of native wools and environmental protection.

The documentary tells the life of the shepherd women in Italy and is the result of a journey of more than two years, of about 17,000 km traveled and of 100 interviews conducted by Anna Kauber.

Among the protagonists of the film Maria Pia Vercella Marchese, shepherdess of Coggiola, in the Biella area.

I knew that in the world of shepherds I would find the field of infinite fundamental issues, very important and urgent, concerning the protection of the natural environment and the consequences of abandoning the mountain; the disharmony of this balance leads to a series of factors such as the hydrogeological instability, the demographic decline and the work that concerns us all“said Anna Kauber in a recent interview.

Whoever has seen the film – declares Alberto Costa President Gomitolorosa – can only agree on the choice and we thank Anna for accepting our invitation, she will be present to present and stimulate discussion and discussion on the fundamental issues raised by it. We expect a positive response from the audience“.

Visit to the plant and Spoon River in the factory

On Sunday 6 October the Miagliano Hydroelectric Plant, the one inside the Botto Wool Mill, will again be visited thanks to the property, Energie Rinnovabili srl, which replicates this possibility, given the success achieved last month.

This time there will be a surprise along the way into the bowels of the factory: a small theatrical appointment, to seal the mystery and the infinite possibilities of encounter that this place can create.

The initiative is, as always, coordinated by Manuela Tamietti who has followed the project currently called Wool Experience since 2013, and which involves the involvement of numerous partners: Storie di Piazza, ATL, Biellese Museum Network and other associations and the contribution of the Cassa di Risparmio di Biella Foundation and Cassa di Risparmio di Torino Foundation.

The visit will start at 15.00 from the Lanificio and will last until around 17.30.

The history of the cotton mill will surprise you, water has always been the key element that characterizes the landscape and shapes destinies, channeled into the open channel, comes from the Cervo stream, descends with a pipe into the factory with a jump of 21.45m from the tank loading at the discharge, to feed two powerful turbines.

This strength will be the same that animates our actors in residence, who will face their character thanks to an immersion in poetry, from Friday 4 October with the director / actor Fabio Banfo.

The work will be special and will use the character as the medium to free the person who is the actor. This seminar aims exactly at this goal: “using” the character to free the person in us.

Fabio Banfo has now reached the seventh edition of Spoon River in Residenza, a poetic encounter that has met with tremendous success and that is repeated every year in a way that is always different and that involves people between Piedmont, Lombardy and Emilia Romagna, which is why there are many actors who retrace the experience even if already faced years before, in other caves and mysterious places of the Cervo Valley.

Free admission.

Biella in scena 2019-2020

The new season of the Villani Social Theater kicks off on Saturday 26 October.

Here is the message from the Organizational Director, Mario Liore, and the Artistic Director, Rita Ballarati:

Every theater season brings with it expectations, expectations, trust, commitment and determination, Biella in Scena 2019/2020 is particularly so.

We participated in a call for tenders that saw us winners, with immense pleasure, for the second time and this fills us with great pride, after a few weeks of uncertainty.

Next season will be a tribute to Emotions, joy, expectation, emotion, enthusiasm, loneliness, anger, passion.

Re-reading these moods are those that we experienced while we were working on the new project for the Villani Social Theater. We are Mario Liore, Rita Ballarati, Silvia Naretto, Katia Billia, Ludovico Capussella, Il Contato del Canavese, a somewhat strange name, made up of faces that by now you have learned to know.

All of us, few, to tell the truth, let’s do Teatro! What does Fare Teatro mean? Too long to explain but we guarantee two things:

– The First: it is a job not a hobby, almost always a good job, better than many others, almost always.

– The Second: when the curtain closes, then reopens and the audience rises to applaud giving the impression of not wanting to leave the theater, here in that moment “doing theater” is the most beautiful job in the world!

The program is attached.
