Friday night… suburb atmosphere, shady characters, dark voices with a bitter taste of tobacco, unchained melodies and broken hearts, ethyl metal dreams, lost feelings, street fights, gangsters and Italian Mafia.
In the middle of Santa Margherita’s square, the meeting point for the night life in Venice: Caffè Rosso. It was a fascinating place frequented by artists, poets and musicians, where you can travel to the past and imagine the most intriguing stories.
Here the city shows its most urban face: colorful graffiti above walls and metal blinds, battered doors that no one is able to close anymore, hands with sharp nails doing forbidden things, broken chairs, unstable tables, left wine glasses, smashed bottles, rusty pipes... uninhabited houses and dirty streets. Real life: imperfections everywhere. Creation and deconstruction.
Caffè Rosso is the scene of a passionate tango full of desire and stolen glances. The dancers are a collusion of legs and arms which makes it difficult to tell which parts belong to whom. Red and black. Aggressive love scratches the silent night. A purple guitar is playing “Malena”. The broken voice of melancholy is drawing ghost’s shadows on the street.
A woman's hand is smoking and waiting behind the window… remembering a Summer milonga that doesn’t exist anymore.
