They experience passing from death to life, from pain to love as expressed by some passages from Chiara Lubich which are included in the stories It is a project which was created thanks to a host of contributors. Featuring: Alessio De Caprio (Italy), Rafael Reyes Loyo (Mexico), and Sarah Finch (UK). Music by Sandro Crippa. Artwork by Roberto Cipollone (Bottega di Ciro, Italy).
