Ashkan khatibi – LUI  

He. Ediz. Italian and Persian

A cell. A character. Inquisitors who follow one another to carry out an interrogation. They want a confession. By hook or, above all, by crook. They cajole and threaten: who are they facing? A human rights activist, a teenager, a young sportsman, a child, an actress, a student, a rapper, a poet and film director, representatives of a community, of a people who protest against a regime that has oppressed them for years. What do they have in common? That they are all dead. That their voices have been muffled and silenced, their bodies made to disappear. But not their words. Their invocations. Their desire for justice, redemption, a normal existence. Of art, of culture. Of music, poetry, novels, cinema and theater. He. A character for thousands of faces, for thousands of crushed but not forgotten lives. Never forgotten. Because the power of words draws strength from their pain, screams, humiliation and torture suffered, rising in a single deep cry for freedom. The volume contains the Persian version of the text.
