Introduction
The intertwining of rural and urban areas is increasingly intense. The story of Silvano Galfione, a shepherd and cheesemaker from the Pinerolo area, documents the clash between the urban spirit that reinhabits the countryside and the farmer who works the land. The stench, the mosquitoes, and the natural inconveniences of the farmer become unbearable for the "rural citizen."
Galfione's story features sequences showing fragments of the Pinerolo countryside crossed by the ring road. Walls and borders of a "rurbanization."
Synopsis
We have drawn this episode from a larger project that will lead to a documentary series entitled "LANDSCAPES OF THE WORLD – Agriculture, Ecology, and the Future of the Pinerolo Area." With this project, developed with the Pensieri in Piazza association in Pinerolo, we aim to discuss ecology as a systemic activity aimed at creating closed cycles involving food, artisanal, and industrial production. These activities transcend the unregulated anthropic process in which production waste is released into the environment, and consider waste no longer as waste but as the last and simultaneously the first link in the transformation of matter and agriculture.
According to this perspective, humans abandon their role as hunter-gatherers-transformers, totally dependent on the external environment, and become "generators of environments," consciously contributing to the creation of the habitat in which they live. Humans seek the mind of nature, reflect through it, and share, beyond the physical space of biological matter, their ideas, and create variations.
