Arriving in Grosseto
That winter in Grosseto while searching for a cinema showing a film that had won an award at the Venice Film Festival, I discovered what was hidden in the rooms of the Dopolavoro Ferroviario. (recreational club for railway workers)
From the street level, it was impossible to imagine what was behind the insignia of the bar steps away from the Grosseto railway station with its statue of a buttero (mounted herder).
In fact, the rooms of the Dopolavoro Ferroviario had been transformed into a place, bar and restaurant including the Cinema d'Essai, which seemed to be an active cultural center in the city.
The environment and people in all their particularities sparked a Flash of the Milan Central Station I had photographed.
