Directed by Andrea Cocchi, Simone Cristicchi

The show that Cristicchi has constructed recovers the folk tradition of the Tuscan mining village of Santa Fiora, recruiting a vigorous chorus from among the miners and recounting their now obsolete daily life, white deaths, and exploitation. It is the story of a thankless and strenuous life, but with the joyful and supportive atmosphere of an evening among friends in a tavern. The book contine the commented lyrics of the songs, direct testimonies of the miners and a photo insert
