It’s often a sense of shakiness which emerges in seeking affordable rent. Furthermore, leasing a real estate in the time of Covid it’s an enough though enterprise due to the different restrictions in moving freely and without any fear even visiting the venue, still not to mention the angst before the future that a change in life like a relocation involves so that everything starts spinning around. Such a pretty much postmodern sensation should have had Hazel in the Synecdoche, New York by Charlie Kaufman when she rents a burning house, which becomes quite her home yet with this persisting sense of precarity still not precluding to keep going. The experience is now translocated in another city, Turin, which is presently marked by phenomena of price dumping in the housing market perpetrated by big financial speculators. This evil strategy, on the one hand, condemns the city to decadence and obsolescence, on the other hand, it has the effect to be a good opportunity to rent or buy a house for a convenient price. It still remains a burning house in a burning city, but it, however, becomes home to someone.
