The evocative visual filmed with the Italian National Synchronized Swimming Team, in a magical environment where gravity gives way to an ethereal dance of floating bodies.
Initially developed to be hosted inside the Italian Pavilion at Expo 2017 in Astana, Kazakhstan, it is a visual of extreme poetic value for which we involved the Italian Synchro Swimming National Team. A strong image was needed that was able to emotionally summarize the theme proposed by the event (Future Energy).
The result is a visual that is both powerful and light at the same time, where the beauty and elegance of the floating bodies of the swimmers sums up the idea of an energy that surrounds us and that we do not see. These are underwater shots of the National team performing a series of choreographies upside down and in apnea.
The shots are then flipped so that the viewer sees our protagonists, rather than swimming, floating above the water's surface, with a magical and surprising effect.
