In 2022, I met Beatrice Baldacci. I was going through a period of pain and great change. I saw others perceiving her existence so differently than I did. At this point, I began to ask myself many questions about the origins of my sadness. Seeing her work, "Superheroes Without Superpowers," struck me. I delved deeper with "The Den" and from there, I reached the point of no return. That evening in early July three years ago, I realized that the emotion I felt, and that I wanted to protect at all costs, was my own sadness. A sadness I kept finding in others and that had consumed me, to the point of making me lose who I was. I denied Ginevra's existence for years. I wanted only Axel to assert himself. I didn't make this short film to seek answers, but to put together the pieces of my life.

Together they show that the cruelty at the heart of this policy was its very purpose. Against this backdrop, audiences can begin to absorb the U.S. government’s role in developing and implementing policies that have kept over 1300 children without confirmed reunifications years later, according to the Department of Homeland Security.
