Domus presents “Songs of next doors” by Flavie Pinatel at the MDFF

At the Milano Design Film Festival, Domus will present a documentary by Flavie Pinatel about the monumental housing complex of La Maladerie, near Paris.

At the Milano Design Film Festival 2017, Domus presents a portrait of a social housing project with astonishing shapes (La Maladrerie near Paris). “Songs of next doors” by Flavie Pinatel is a documentary of a different kind, since the protagonists express themselves through songs and not through speech. Implicitly, Flavie describes poetically how people live together in France in 2016. The movie screening will be preceded by the trailer of “Love will save the world” by Elisa Fuksass. Domus is Digital Partner of the fifth edition of the MDFF.
