The story of the opening cycle of a summer swimming pool, a place that lives only three months a year and where memories, habits, hopes and illusions of those who occasionally attend, who feel it as a place of sociality and a chance of performing or simply to escape from reality. Chronicles of more or less casual encounters of summer in a suburban neighborhood, the right time to try to get away from problems and thoughts.

“With ‘L’oro dei giorni’ we wanted to tell at the same time a place and a period, in a concrete and figurative sense. Immersing us in the daily life of the swimming center Scarioni in Niguarda, we have been part of a microcosm, where making friends with young tattoos and strapping lifeguards, with old typical citizens of Milan and South American families, we are slowly admitted to tell and be part of this parallel dimension but next to the popular neighborhood around it.” (Léa Delbès, Federico Frefel, Greta Nani, Michele Silva)
