THE KURDS A PEOPLE WITHOUT COUNTRY
History has taught us that the Kurds are descendants of the ancient Medes, a population of indo-Iranian origins and the Zoroastrianism religion (converting to Islam from VII century A.D.) that made its way from Central Asia to the mountains of Iran around 614 B.C. Over time this people were denied unity due to social, geographic and economical differences; this irredeemable division of the Kurd society has played into the hands of the more powerful states in the area with interests in using the Kurd tribes as a buffering tactic with other states, and to exploit the rich Kurdistan resources of enormous oil fields and a number of materials like steel, silver, uranium and particularly chrome.

The Documentary screening "MURETTI A SECCO" (Dry Walls) is a musical-history research project by Francesco Sossio Sacchetti. A documentary carried out in collaboration with various primary and secondary schools in Apulia, The Pensioner Trade Union and with the Federation of the Lavoratori dell'agro-Industria (agricultural workers) and promoted by CGL (General Workers Committee) and the Fondazione Di Vittorio. The research focuses on the recovery of songs about the work and struggle of the region of Apulia.

This is followed by a concert by Francesco Sossio, who will perform traditional Apulian songs and unpublished material, music that evokes the atmosphere of the past.
