This is Fine tells us the story of the human's modern addiction to natural and social's catastrophes. These events, streamed through the TV's screen, seem to not have any impact on people, as to forget about them all you need is a switch.

Director's notes
This is Fine was born from a personal reflectin on today's society, on how we are constantly bombarded with a non-stop flow of information from the media and how this, over time, is making us progressively insensitive to the succession of natural catastrophes caused by climate change. This "overdose of information", as perfectly summarized by Veronica Passeri in "Penelope alla Peste", was the starting point of the entire project: right from the beginning, the intention was to tell this aspect of our society free from prejudice and any kind of criticism.
