Although dogged by controversy, the Mose, a system of mobile walls that emerge when the sea is about to submerge the city of Venice, is nearing completion. Moving the massive floating barriers is a job that Fagioli has been accomplishing for several years now, but never before has the company actually laid 19 of them in one session. Each barrier weighs 40 tonnes and needs to be attached to a complex system of levers and hinges. The logistics of moving the barriers is a nightmare, as they come in from the work sites and are laid on top of the concrete emplacements. It is a race against time, to save the city from the winter high tides. But will it work?
