Storja ta’ distils the lives of senior ordinary persons to reflect on their lives, thoughts and aspirations, so they may guide upcoming generations in their lives and in finding their purpose
Each episode takes the form of an in-depth interview with a senior person. The interview is informal, with the producer and the protagonist engaging in a conversation at the protagonist’s home or while visiting locations of significance in their life.
The interview starts with simple questions, just getting to know the person. The first questions are on a superficial level, defining, in broad terms, the plot of the person’s life. As the interview progresses and the protagonist becomes more comfortable, the questions probe deeper, exposing beliefs, fears and aspirations.
The tone of the programme is friendly and casual, however we do not shy away from asking difficult questions. The questions ask the protagonist to reflect on her life, her choices and at times reminisce on what could have been. We ask about the purpose of their life, whether she found happiness, about her dreams and fears.
