Synopsis

Danubius, Marco Bulgarelli's first bphotobook, is a photographic journey in search of European identity after the enlargement to the east: from the sources of the river to the immense delta, along the 2860 km route, passing through cities (Ulm, Linz, Vienna, Bratislava, Budapest, Vukovar, Belgrade, Tulcea) and smaller countries, great plains, wide landscapes, different peoples, customs and languages.

An interior and dreamlike, lyrical but also documentary journey where the river represents both the mystical-philosophical side and the historical-cultural aspect, a symbol of the frontier not only national, political, social, but also psychological, cultural and religious.
