What if we were immortal?

Inno ad Arimane

Lucia Stallone

(IT) Inno ad Arimaneriflette sulle contraddizioni della società contemporanea, ossessionata dall’eterna giovinezza. Nella storia, l’immortalità ribalta questo paradigma: si ostenta la vecchiaia e si celebrano i bisogni naturali, i nostri tabù. Anwar, desideroso di morire, cerca di riconnettersi con la natura, mentre Arimane diventa il simbolo di un’umanità disillusa.

(EN) “Hymn to
Arimane” reflects on the contradictions of contemporary society, obsessed with eternal youth. In the story, immortality overturns this paradigm: old age is flaunted, and natural needs, our taboos, are celebrated. Anwar, longing for death, seeks to reconnect with nature, while Arimane becomes the symbol of a disillusioned humanity.

Stories

We live in a world overwhelmed by content, often generated by artificial intelligence algorithms, and this constant information overload forces us to make a necessary choice: we must discard the superfluous and select only what truly interests and matters to us—stories!

Whether they are small or global, intimate or collective, funny or serious, stories tell us about the people and society we live in. They define us, recounting what has been and what we need today.
