NONO, LUIGI — Intolleranza 1960

"Intolleranza 1960 is the awakening of human awareness in a man who has rebelled against the demands of neccesity - an emigrant miner - and searches for a reason and a 'human' basis for life. After several experiences of intollerance and domination, he is beginning to rediscover human relations, between himself and others, when he is swept away in a flood with other people. There remains his certainty in 'a time when man will be a help to man'. Symbol? Reportage? Fantasy? All three, in a story of our time." [Luigi Nono]
