In this scene from Antonioni's film Deserto Rosso (1964), the fog takes over the pier by the sea, and the characters appear and disappear wrapped in it; this is how the protagonist sees people, with her eyes filled with the pain of living: they are there, they exist but they are absent, indifferent, and disillusioned.
This scene was shot at one of the four piers that can be seen at the entrance of the port of Ravenna, it is one of the small ones, and it is no longer as we see it in the film; it has been completely rebuilt. You can stroll there now just like back then, and the misty winter atmosphere hasn’t changed Il Deserto Rosso
