Lo strano caso di Kimberly

I reimagine Kimberly Akimbo in Italian, setting the story in Civitavecchia in 1999 and centring a sixteen-year-old living with progeria.

PROJECT STORY

I relocate Kimberly to late-1990s Civitavecchia and stay close to her clarity, her desire for a future and the tensions of a family unable to protect her. I let the text’s humour coexist with a condition that accelerates time without making it her only definition.

Sixteen years to live, against time.
