They left so we could become is a short film, also conceptualised as installation.

This project serves as a heartfelt homage to my family, who made the sacrifice of leaving their home country in order to provide for a better future.

The short film weaves together archival footage, featuring people waving at the camera, accompanied by the timeless soundtrack of O Sole Mio.

The combination of visuals and sound captures the essence of a collective journey and the profound impact of familial sacrifices.
