Shown at the Milano Design Film Festival the world premiere of the short documentary, Antonio Marras. Lirico Pretesto, created by Mumon and curated by Francesco Maggiore. The video tells the story of Antonio Marras’s one-of-a-kind fashion show by transforming the construction site of the Teatro Lirico di Milano into a Fellini-style scene animated by models, trapeze artists, band players, dancers and performers.

The short film documents the facts, reveals the anecdotes and tells the development of this experience between scaffolding and men at work, drills, hammers and construction moments. The fashion show, created on the occasion of the Milano Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2018, was made possible thanks to the program Cantiere-evento, conceived by Fondazione Dioguardi and Garibaldi-Fragasso to accompany the restoration of the theater with artists and cultural events devoted to the city and accessible to citizens.
