Early photographs by Fabio Sgroi, who in 1984 began photographing his friends, young people close to punk music and the underground, in Palermo. The book looks at the city of the mid-1980s through that scene and opens with a text by Francesco De Grandi recalling LA CUBA, a punk, anarchist group in a cyberpunk outpost of an interzone Palermo swept by the wind of heroin, with draughtsmen of other worlds and plans for independent fanzines, sitting on an unfinished bridge in via Belgio.
