During the two decades of dictetorship, Italians of all ages, gender and backgrounds took the pen to write to Mussolini. Many wrote to ask for financial aid, some to denounce wrongs or illegality, but most only wanted to communicate to Mussolini the faith in his person, with a devotion that sometimes leads to adoration. These letters, interpreted by four actors on the background of the images of the time, and accompanied by the testimony of an exceptional sender, Andrea Camilleri, tell the story, the hopes, the sorrows of those who wrote them; the documentary shows how that relationship of affection without intermediaries was born, grew up and then broke, thanks also to the pervasive use of propaganda that Mussolini was able to create with the Italians.

THIS MUSIC PLANTS TREES 2

Written by Alessandra. Posted in news

Arbor Day As a formal holiday, it was first observed in 1872 in Nebraska City, Nebraska on April 10, and about 1 million trees were planted on that first date.

“Arbor Day”, has become a celebration recognized in many countries around the world and it is intended to encourage people, both in groups and as individuals, to cultivate and care for trees.

Usually Arbor Day is celebrated on the last Friday of April, but the dates can change throughout the year based on the best times for planting trees depending on the area.

Aural Films presents THIS MUSIC PLANTS TREES 2, the second volume of this special, at the Arbor Day 2017. Twenty-five musicians coming from different parts of the world for a collection of compositions that aim to stimulate tree care starting with the simple act of planting them ..

Our forests are disappearing and we need the commitment of each of us to plant trees and recreate forests around the world. Almost half of all trees have been removed from the planet but the forests are essential for the sustenance of all people around the world.

You can make the difference even by purchasing music.

All the proceeds from the album This Music Plants Trees 2 will be donated to the Plant to Billion Trees project.

More than two and a half hours of music to plant more trees!

The album will be available Arbor Day April 28th on digital download and ecco collection disc. The album release can be purchased online at: auralfilms.bandcamp.com/album/this-music-plants-trees-2

About Plant a Billion Trees

The Plant a Billion Trees campaign is an unprecedented restoration initiative launched by The Nature Conservancy in 2008. Our first project was to restore Brazil’s Atlantic Forest, and now we have expanded to include forest projects in the United States and China. By planting trees and helping forests regrow where they have been severely degraded, we’re helping to ensure clean water, air, diverse species and full, healthy forests for future generations.
