Enrico Naso is an undertaker in Lampedusa. Constantly confronted with the death that lurks everywhere on this remote rock in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea, Enrico has chosen life, immersing us in what it means to be human. Against the grain of images and media coverage, he turns to everyday gestures, faith, songs, and the waves to preserve his humanity.

We are delighted to present the German premiere of Alexander Tank and Tobias Scharnagl’s moving documentary, which had its world premiere at Visions du Réel in Nyon. The screening will be followed by a discussion with director Alexander Tank.
