As per Christmas tradition, for the 8th consecutive year, and in collaboration with my partner Mattia Bertoldi, we have produced a series of 3 mini-documentaries, “Get Together for Christmas," dedicated to emigration from the Italian-speaking part of Switzerland for RSI - Swiss-Italian Television. The three documentaries, each 16 minutes long, were aired by "Il Quotidiano" a daily program on RSI, on the 22nd, 23rd and 24th of December 2022.

This edition takes place in England and Ireland, following the model proposed by the trio composed of Dario Bertoni, Sergio Locatelli and Enzo Regusci between the 1960s and 1970s. The cameras captured the stories of six people who chose to live across the Channel: from London with Emilie Martinoni and Simone Giampaolo - to Loredana Guetg-Wyatt in Poole - Manchester with Igor Francetic - then Dublin with Diego Fasciati - and Anna Lardi in Galway.

For those interested in watching the Italian version of the three episodes aired on Swiss TV on December 22, 23 and 24 - 2022, below are the links.
