«This year Trame returns to one of its strong identity themes: memory, remembrance, the battles for freedom, the resistance to the mafias in the territories, the stories of the victims and those who have been forgotten. But it will also be the time to reflect on the present, on the state of fight against mafias and on wars that are turning the world upside down. Like every year, Trame aims to be an open space for dialogue, discussion and discussion. To orient ourselves in the future, with the tools of knowledge of the history that preceded us”, explains the artistic director of Trame.Festival, Giovanni Tizian.

A festival full of surprises: we are waiting for you in Lamezia.”
