Special appearance in the documentary: DANIELE SILVESTRI (Italian singer) and BILL EMMOTT (former director of the Economist). Emergency Exit is a documentary project about Italy and the consequences of the last 20 years of politics on the young generation: a lot of young italian leave their country every year, more than 90% of them are graduated and professionally skilled. They move away because of a lot of reason, but nobody in Italy seems to have the desire to listen or care for them. So I decided to start a trip: I traveled around six (and more) European countries, from Paris to London, Berlin, Wien, Bergen and Tenerife, finding young italians who left Italy, looking for better opportunities of life and career. Six stories of ordinary separation, one question: what happened to Italy? The project, realised by the young director Brunella Filì, has been officially selected to the VII Edition of Italian Doc Screenings, the most important documentary showcase in Italy. Other Official selections are: Festival del Cinema Europeo 2014, Madrid International Film Festival 2014 (Best Foreign Language Documentary Award),South Easter Film Festival 2015 (USA), Scarborough Film Festival – with the support of HotDocs (Toronto, Canada) and many more.
