Collaboration with 'Il Camino''

The Residential Psychotherapy Centre has existed at Faito since 1985, has been collaborating with us since the beginning of the Festival and has been very active for the last 5 years: 
They also participate in artistic initiatives – such as theatre and dance – and are at the origin of a feature film project: 
“L’oro del cam(m)ino” produced by Belgium and France and which is currently being edited.
 
The Portraits that will be screened during the Festival are the result of the generosity of some of our residents and our desire to preserve a trace of their history and our desire to preserve a visual and audio trace of the beauty of their of the beauty of their most intimate and personal journey.
 
Talking about the Faito Doc Festival through the protagonists of the Camino means going back to the origin of our love for documentaries, to the pleasure of meeting each other, to knowing how to listen to and share the intimate and the adventure of life through Art.
The protagonists of the films will take part in the meeting, some of the therapists responsible for the Community and some of the Festival’s organisers.

Diptych

L'oro del Cam(m)ino e Il Cam(m)ino

by Nathalie Rossetti and Turi Finocchiaro

On Mount Faito, at the Il Camino rehabilitation center, inmates on probation and individuals recovering from addiction live in voluntary exile, surrounded by nature. High above Naples and its outskirts, facing Mount Vesuvius, these residents struggle to rebuild themselves, to transform, and to prepare for their return to the city — ready to face life’s challenges once again.

The jury during the festival

A Neapolitan jury, made up of residents of the Il Camino psychotherapeutic centre participates in the viewing of the films in Competition and awards one or two prizes that they themselves create in the Community and give to the best film.
The introspective journey undertaken by the residents during their therapy gives rise to a wealth of thought and criticism that offers us an original point of view on the films presented and often enables us spectators to free ourselves from social determinisms and preconceived ideas.
