An anarchist life

Ivan Bormann & Fabio Toich

Il Curtîl di Firmine
52 minutes
22/07 - 22:00

Worker, soldier, militant, prisoner, conspirator, bomber, exile. This and much more was Umberto Tommasini (1896-1980), an anarchist blacksmith who crossed the 20th century driven by a contagious human approach to life. A documentary that, telling the life of a simple militant blacksmith, also tells the story of his hometown, Trieste, and the great events that shook Europe at the beginning of the 20th century. Between archive images, interviews and original animations, the documentary portrays the life of a man marked by intense humanitarianism and a constant sense of irony. A man who chose, without second thoughts, to devote his life to political struggle and paid the price for this choice directly on his own skin.
