Authentic, unique, intimate. A village where absolute silence reigns and where you can breathe a magical air.
And who knows if it was precisely this that convinced the Sardinian stylist Antonio Marras to choose the village of San Salvatore di Sinis to talk about his art. Just a few more days and the ancient village of Sinis, which in the seventies was chosen by important directors to shoot films such as Spaghetti-Westerns and Garter Colt, will once again be transformed into a set.
Photos and videos a few meters from the crystalline sea of Sinis : Marras, born in 1961, is in those narrow and dusty streets that he decided to present his new Pre fall Winter 2024 collection , with the ancient houses on the sides in thieves that only come to life once a year on the occasion of the Scalzi race. The next 2 and 3 December the village will be heavily armored. To avoid hindering the filming, the Municipality of Cabras even issued an ordinance prohibiting the transit of motor vehicles for those two days.
«It was the minimum - comments the mayor of Cabras Andrea Abis, honored to host the artist from Alghero in a few days - He contacted me several days ago to ask us about the availability of the site, one of a kind. For Cabras it means promotion, visibility and enrichment. It is a pleasure to host a project in one of our local pearls that bears the signature of a Sardinian who has managed to be appreciated everywhere. Thanks to his clothes, our territory will also go around the world." But not only.
For those two days, a structure was needed to house the dressing rooms : «A citizen of Cabras will make her house in the center of the village of San Salvatore available to the models - says the mayor - Obviously free of charge. This gesture demonstrates how the population also accepts that the ancient village is chosen for important projects." Marras will be welcomed by the mayor: «I will welcome him - concludes Abis - Having such an important artist for us is truly an honor».
The news is already circulating in the country. There will be no shortage of curious people.
