On display the shots that the Genoese photojournalist Ivo Saglietti took in 2003 in Syria, documenting the daily life of the Deir Mar Musa monastery, eighty kilometers from Damascus.

The white, the intense black, the contrast of lights and shadows document the life of the community, representing two worlds, the Catholic and the Muslim, which find a place for dialogue and discussion in the monastery».
