Right in the center of Bologna, between Via Marconi and Via Ugo Bassi, there's a filthy, piss soaked under-passage. All day long various men (mostly old Italian men and 30-something North Africans) can be seen hanging around the place, hustling and looking for a quick and nasty blow-job.
This extremely ran-down passage's walls are filled with marvelous ads for male and transexual prostitutes, as well as brilliant exchanges of insults and remarks.
As a farewell to the city where I lived for two years, I decided to document this fantastic place with pictures and audio recordings.
My Norwegian friend Tor Navjord provided a Zoom digital recorder, a Sony Microcassette recorder and a camera and we spent some time in this piss-smeared dungeon, collecting field recordings and taking pictures.
Enjoy the results.
To get a pdf booklet with pictures of the place (including English translations of the graffiti) you need to purchase the download ( for 1 € or plus).
Recorded in October 2012 in Bologna, Italy
