The Vietri Project

"The Vietri Project" follows Gabriele, a young bookseller from Berkeley who travels to Rome seeking a mysterious customer and, in the process, uncovers the intricate and often hidden histories of Italy and her own family. As she explores the city and trails clues from diverse lives and events, she confronts personal and historical wounds, ultimately seeking understanding of her identity and place in the world.
