Mind on Screen. La mente al Cinema III edizione -  Festival del Cinema Indipendente di Foggia, edizione 2010


He suffers because he sees that he's not like the others. He has never worked, he has never had girlfriend, his life impoverishes and feels unfortunate. I would prefer seeing him dead before through that living like that . A mother. A gray life. One camera.

Paquita y todo le demàs di David Moncasi. "They say the worse that can happen to a mother is to lose a child. I do not agree: it is much worse to have a sick child with no hope of recovery and see him suffer every day". Paquita is telling us this, a 62 year old woman whose son is schizophrenic. Paquita and Cristian open the doors to their world though their own filming. The outcome is a moving and rue portrait of how it is to live with a mentally disturbed member in the family.



"Paquita y todo lo demás" di David Moncasi racconta la storia di Paquita, una donna di 62 anni il cui figlio è affetto da schizofrenia. Paquita condivide con noi questa frase: "Dicono che il peggiore dolore che una madre possa provare è perdere un figlio. Non sono d'accordo: è molto peggio avere un figlio malato senza speranza di guarigione e vederlo soffrire ogni giorno". Paquita e Cristian aprono le porte del loro mondo attraverso le loro riprese personali. Il risultato è un ritratto toccante e sincero di come sia vivere con un membro della famiglia affetto da disturbi mentali.

Apologise to all the artists: we are out of 7th The Wrong Biennale Ediction

H i to all artists I just received a mail form David Guillo, Founder of The Wrong Biennale,  in which he says that our digital pavilion is excluded from The Wrong Biennale. So I have to apologise, we were included in september 2025 and then no more. If the artists that contaced us want we will show artworks with pleasure :-) , but it can't be said that they are part of The Wrong Biennale. Dear artists tell me please your decision Luigi Starace UareMyProblem - Digital Art Pavillion Italian Journal of Medical Humanities Stigmamente Art Media and Psychiatry Dear Luigi, After careful consideration, we have decided not to include the uaremyproblem pavilion in this edition of the Biennale. Please know that if your pavilion or embassy does not enter The Wrong, it does not make your proposal—or you as curator or artist—unheard or invalid. It simply means that it does not align with the context of this particular edition. I want to personally thank you for the effort, creativity...
