What was Sampierdarena like before the great transformations? In this video, we retrace the neighborhood's history through the places, people, and events that shaped its identity.
From the vanished beaches to the industries, from sports to cinemas, to the social changes and the most difficult years of its history.
A story made of memories, curiosities, and testimonies to rediscover a side of Sampierdarena that few remember today.
