Marking a hundred years since her birth, the volume pays homage to Lisetta Carmi (1924-2022), who chose the lens as an instrument for examining the world and the human condition.

Through nearly two hundred pictures it presents an overview of her production, the fruit of a many-sided search that always gave voice to those who were forgotten and was able to tell, with an acute and lucid gaze, distant realities and worlds in change: from the work made in Italy — in Sardinia, in Sicily, the Florence flood — to the moving reports gathered during several journeys made at the end of the sixties in far-off countries.
