SYNOPSIS
NUVOLA, a film that tells the story of a major project of urban renewal and transformation, starting from the Lavazza headquarters in Turin, engaging with the people who live there, the Aurora district, and the city of Turin. A multifaceted system of relationships in constant motion, a living place that is continually evolving. The film is a portrait—both individual and collective—that captures life within the various spaces that make up Nuvola, exploring their relationship with People, Light, and its aesthetic transformations throughout the day and across seasons.
Through eight chapters — Aurora, In Dialogue with the City, A Star in the Neighborhood, The Façades of Turin, A Visit to the Museum, Savoy Baroque, A Terrace Overlooking the Park, At the Roots of the Project — NUVOLA takes the viewer through different places: the archaeological area, the Museum, the “Centrale” (which revives the former power plant, now disused), the “Condividere” restaurant, the Bistrot, and the garden-square. Five years after the company’s relocation, the film shows how the architecture of the new headquarters has come to life, turning into an open, multifaceted place oriented toward the future.
