The challengeCreate a music video capable of translating the emotional ambiguity of Sconosciuti into a symbolic visual narrative. Rather than illustrating the lyrics, the film sought to evoke memory, identity and fragile family relationships through poetic imagery open to multiple interpretations.
The idea2RIOT conceived the video as an intimate journey through the inner world of its protagonist. Guided by recurring symbols, including the white horse and its transformation into the blue Marco Cavallo—a cultural reference to freedom, memory and the legacy of Franco Basaglia's revolution in Trieste—the film unfolds as a stream of fragmented recollections where past and present constantly overlap.
The experience2RIOT wrote, directed and completed the entire project, developing its visual language from concept to final edit. Combining cinematic storytelling with symbolic imagery, the film builds an introspective atmosphere in which every visual element contributes to a layered emotional narrative rather than a literal storyline.
OutcomeReleased as the official music video for Sconosciuti by Cosmo, the project expands the album's visual universe through a cinematic and deeply personal work. The film demonstrates 2RIOT's approach to music videos as spaces for visual research, where symbolism, narrative and emotional resonance take precedence over illustration.
