Vertigo50 is the shoot diary of a trip to San Francisco, a tale that mixes the fiction of the famous works by Hitchcock with the discoveries made during the pilgrimage through the spaces of the film. Cinema from intimacy, an homage to Chris Marker, some artificially created memories that will replace my memory and a souvenir for the main character of the film.
