Orissa, India. Biswajt is one of
the last Gotipuas, boys entru-
sted to the temple of Lord Shiva

dhood to dances in honor of

ctates, at puberty he must lea-
ve the temple and join the unk-
nown world outside. A physical
and spiritual journey through
modern India and its contradi-
ctions.

THE LAST DANCE
Salto di Quirra is a region of
Sardinia where Western gover-
nments have tested “new wea-
pons” for over 50 years. Through
incredible archives, the pollu-
tion investigation of a geologist
and the story of a farmer whose
profound relationship with his
land has been deeply affected by
military activities, “Dark matter”
reveals the impact of 50 years of
weapons testing at the heart of
Europe. A “horror story” set in
seemingly untouched nature.
