“Whose child Are You?” is a documentary that combines real footage with AI-generated images to tell the story of Silvio, a 64-year-old man from Castelnuovo Scrivia, a small village rich in tradition. A former printer, Silvio decided to change his life at the age of 60 by opening a restaurant in the village. The place has a deep connection with his childhood: it is the same bar where he first entered at his mother’s request, aged 4, and was asked, “Whose child are you?” This question, which reflects the importance of traditions and family identities in the village, accompanies Silvio in his search for himself and in the transformation of his life. His story is a tale of change, connection to his roots, and questions of identity.
