There is always fog in Comacchio. Life seems to be marked by precise ritual gestures: for Sante, his habits are those of the fisherman, the same habits that his ancestors taught him. But one day, a day that only apparently is the same as all the others, Sante glimpses something in the water, a light that thins out the darkness and fog in which he lives. Discover (or re-discover) a completely new Comacchio, in the dreamlike fairy tale evoked by the magnificent illustrations by Francesco Corli and the poetic words by Alessandra Parmiani. A journey that starts from the deepest of human desires: knowledge.


Francesco Corli was born in Ferrara on October 12, 1994. Since he was a child he became passionate about painting and then landed in illustration, through which he can free his artistic skills. He decided to attend the Dosso Dossi art institute in Ferrara.

Alessandra Parmiani was born in Porto Garibaldi on January 25, 1969. After painting, she then gave vent to her strong imagination that has always distinguished her.
