The use of neon lights to give a luminous shape to the words and places of Ulysses highlights the vitality of Cavana, crystallises memories and brings new recollections to the surface, intertwining past, present and future.

#cavanastories sets out to be a container to collect the stories linked to Cavana and to the Old City which are at risk of being lost, a way to also recover the memories of those who no longer live in Trieste. The interviews collected during the summer and the autumn of 2019 have become a documentary called #CAVANASTORIES and constitute a first core of research which will be taken further in the years to come. The documentary, presented at the 31^st edition of the Trieste Film Festival in 2020, has recently been purchased by RAI.

#cavanastories, besides an hashtag to post your pictures of Doublin’ and Cavana, is also an exhibition that twice a year – in June during Bloomsday and in December – celebrates the stories of Cavana and of its present and past inhabitants, with a series of events and dates in different streets and places of the neighbourhood.
