Melma (2026)

A mother and her son, deserted roads, the flight of birds. Beaches, hands, faces, flowers. Nature, cities and mechanical presences come together in Melma, by Maya Ivona Peiu and Alessia Cascone, to create a visual poem that slips into nightmare. A boy searches for his lost beloved in a post-apocalyptic world engulfed by sludge. He and she, nameless figures bound by a love that has run its course, of which only fragments and unrealized possibilities remain.
