An issue of our times – civil unions – is examined against the backdrop of the alleyways and houses of the ancient town of Civita di Bagnoregio in the province of Viterbo, known as the “dying city” because of the erosion caused by two streams in the valley. Antonio and Paolo freely live together in Berlin but have to handle more than one challenge when they decide to officialise their union with Antonio’s friends and family. The wedding takes place 80km further south in the deconsecrated Church of St. Bonaventure, in the area of Canale Monterano (province of Rome) with a table set up outside, while the chosen setting for the final choreography was the main square of Civita.
