LA DUNA

dir. Emerson Culurgioni &
Stefanie Schroeder
hybrid documentary, 93 min.
Germany/Sardegna
2024

Who owns the land? Legend has it that ex-prime minister Silvio Berlusconi stole a dune in Sardinia, while the locals are fighting for their land and struggling with their dependence on tourism. La Duna is an irresistibly cathartic and humorous documentary that intertwines a portrait of a community with absurd almost-fairytales.*
