Soggetto Obsoleto

Soggetto Obsoleto is a short film directed by Nicola Pegg, set in a dystopian society where individuals are periodically evaluated according to their social usefulness and risk being declared "obsolete."

The score is deliberately absent throughout most of the film and enters only in the final section, during the closing dialogue between father and son.

Music is used as a moment of emotional revelation, introducing intimacy and humanity after prolonged restraint, and marking a clear contrast between the impersonal system that governs the story and the private bond at its core.
