Waste no.2. Wreck

About This Movie

Wreck is a haunting documentary that immerses you in the graveyard of refugee boats on Lampedusa. It’s shot during a tense period in 2014 and 2015, capturing not just the remnants of discarded vessels, but the broader implications of what they represent. The atmosphere is heavy, almost palpable, with a stark visual language that forces you to confront the harsh realities of migration. The pacing is deliberate, allowing moments of reflection amidst the chaos of lost lives and dreams. What stands out is how it distills the value of what we consider waste, revealing layers of meaning in what’s often overlooked. It’s not just about the boats; it’s about the stories they carry and the lives they once held.

Filmed in a unique location with rich historical context.Sombre tone that lingers long after viewing.Thought-provoking commentary on migration and waste.
