For those who fly, use Joris Poggioli
Bleu Désert directs a film called Per Quelli Che Volano for designer Joris Poggioli.
In Per Quelli Che Volano, objects appear and disappear, as if revealed by nature itself.
Partially buried in sand, stone, or water, metallic forms slowly emerge in the heart of raw landscapes: windswept dunes, volcanic rocks, dark seas. Marked by a recurring circular symbol, these monoliths seem to belong as much to the territory as to another time. Here, nothing is invented: everything is revealed.
Conceived by designer Joris Poggioli as a free project, somewhere between a manifesto film and a carte blanche, Per Quelli Che Volano explores the organic link between design, materials, and landscape, with one simple constraint imposed on the directors: maintain a close dialogue with the stone. Shot in Lanzarote, exclusively in natural settings, the film draws on the aesthetic and material resonance between the island's dark volcanic rock and the materials used by the designer in his work. The landscape thus becomes a conceptual extension of the object, a space where forms, textures, and natural forces interact.
Directed by Bleu Désert, and produced by HENRY the film is built around tensions dear to the collective: nature and design, sculpture and landscape, raw material and crafted gesture. The objects, initially inert, gradually seem to vibrate, as if animated by the elements surrounding them. Some begin to levitate, pieces of furniture rise above the dunes or float above the sea, while the wind, water, and sand continue to mark their surface, inscribing the passage of time on their material.

The filming, spread over five days with a small crew, was deliberately concentrated on the blue hours, between dusk and dawn, in a search for unstable and fragile light. Shot in 35mm, the film asserts the materiality of the image, reinforced by a flickering effect achieved directly during filming, without the use of visual effects, thanks to the collaboration of Angelo Marques. However, some rotational movements were created using artificial intelligence, used as a specific tool to create movement rather than as a spectacular effect.
Deprived of its live sound due to being shot on film, the movie relies heavily on post-production sound work: Paul Caro completely recreated the sound design and original score. This work gives the film a unique feel, varying the pace between contemplative sequences and more dynamic moments, until the objects finally disappear, dissolving into the landscape without a trace. The film ends with a succession of almost monochrome landscapes, where sky and ground merge, and where matter and form fuse in a single movement.
With Per Quelli Che Volano, Bleu Desert continues to establish itself as a highly unique collective. From concept to post-production, they design devices that are simple in appearance but demonstrate great visual mastery. Produced by Henry, the film embodies the meeting of a designer and filmmakers driven by the same vision: that of a creation where form, matter, and territory engage in free dialogue.
