“We tell a lot of travel tales. The first one is that of the consul Cesare Poma, an Italian diplomat and art collector. He collected a large number of newspapers which we show here. Inside this trip it’s hidden the trip of two French journalists who travel around the world, inventing a newspaper that is published in various regions of the world. Then we have the stories of six women who, right in the middle of the Victorian era, decided to infringe the social rules of their times and leave on their own, something that was not permitted, to make their trip around the world.”
