An itinerary through the lesser-known Turin, where fear has left a deep mark. Old hospitals, major epidemics, and crimes born of collective terror tell the storey of a fragile, restless city, often forced to live alongside death. From the diseases that reshaped the cityscape to the first, tentative steps of modern medicine, healing and crime intertwine in a tale charged with tension.

As you walk through streets and places still marked by these events, stories of isolation, suspicion, and social control will unfold. An evocative journey through real events and repressed memories that reveals the darker, more disturbing side of Turin.
