What has happened in Bagnoli in the last thirty years? Since the last casting in 1990 to large projects, until the failure of theBagnolifutura. Construction sites, reclamations, controversies, lost opportunities. But also art and literature, musica, cinema and research. After the great industrial history of the twentieth century, In Bagnoli all the uncertainties and contradictions of a "new time" that perhaps we have not yet managed to understand have taken shape in, If it is true that in Taranto it seems to repeat a film already seen. Tells us Giovanni Capasso, that the factory managed to see her as she turned off its engines forever. And that even if as an engineer he has always brought the white helmet, He loved the history of Bagnoli until he considered himself in all respects a "yellow helmet". Beating himself, together with many others, To save the memory of the "construction site". That was not just a factory, But a great collective experience.
