Synopsis

They are young, because none of them have crossed the line of 40. They are self-sufficient, because as a profession they have chosen to exercise their point of view. They are authors, because they are all endowed with a narrative awareness and a stylistic figure that makes their gaze immediately recognizable. Davide Monteleone, Pietro Masturzo, Alessandro Cosmelli, Sirio Magnabosco, Giulio Di Sturco, Simona Ghizzoni, Martina Bacigalupo, Alessandro Imbriaco, Lorenzo Castore, Massimo Berruti.

They are ten of the most interesting Italian photographers who, at just over 30, have already expressed their talent on an international horizon. Ten "little masters" with a creative universe to tell: where do their visions come from? What do they put at the center of their lens? How do they compose their stories? How do they survive a market in crisis? From their answers, the portrait of a generation emerges, one which is rewriting the codes of the story in images.
