No Tav. The Indians of the valley
The Susa Valley has always been a land of transit for peoples and civilizations. And "No Tav" is a slogan that has appeared for over twenty years in every corner of an entire valley, on walls, mountains, and houses. The cry of an entire valley against the Turin-Lyon high-speed rail project.
