In Venice, amongst the clothes hung out to dry and a small altar with Jesus's effigy, hides an historical section of "Rifondazione comunista", the Italian Communist Refoundation Party. Gianni, Saverio and Corrado meet there daily since 1973, year in which they founded the local section of the party. Day after day, many things have happened: the Berlin Wall fell, the Soviet Union crumbled, the party got divided and nowadays, chatter and anecdotes have replaced the political discussion, but when the neighbour political parties take over the old symbols or when they demonstrate nearby, the passion for politics is relighted.
