Film screening at the Loading Dock by Adrian Paci’s The Wanderers. In his internationally acclaimed practice, Paci has recurrently returned to the experiences of societal upheaval and forced migration. In his works, we meet unemployed men waiting for a future that never seem to come. Refugees trying to verbalize the unspeakable, and people and various other animals wandering along desolate roads, in the direction of a future that seem impossible to grasp.
