During the period of his residence at the Kunsthuis Syb in Friesland in the Netherlands, Mangano spent five weeks in the specialised health centre De Wissel (The Exchange) which hosts people with mental disabilities and gives them the opportunity to lead more independent lives.

While there he participated in all of the community activities and the result of his stay was the creation of his film which portrays the daily lives of the centre's inhabitants, through a series of associations between landscapes and portraits.

In addition to the main screening and debate on 18 April, the film will be shown continuously, from 14.00-18.00, and on Sunday 19 April from 11.00-16.00. The film will be screened in its original Dutch language, with English subtitles.
