You can leave, you can go very far away even if you are... still! You can stay in Turin and, at the same time, travel to the heart of uncontaminated Africa. You can embrace the whole world without having internet, TV or a mobile phone. This is what Giuseppe Allamano did, the "Salgari of the Mission" who, although he never left Italy, founded one of the most important missionary institutes in the world: the Missionaries of the Consolata. The figure of Allamano is at the centre of the fiction La Partenza (The Departure): the protagonist, Tullio, who is now an old man, remembers that when he was 18 years old he met him... He wanted to leave as a missionary, but didn't have the courage... and now he regrets it! Moreover, his son Bruno, a famous actor, has to play Allamano himself in the theatre! Him again... it's a torture!
Running time: 60'. Audio and subtitles: Italian.
