What if you could peel back the layers of a stranger in 90 minutes?
Join us for an experimental evening where English Speakers and Italians meet not as tourists and locals, but as equals navigating the space between languages, cultures, and the stories we rarely tell.

THE EXPERIENCE
12 guests.
2 parallel tables.
3 levels of depth.
You begin as strangers, separated by a three-meter gap that keeps the energy close but the conversation contained. Over three carefully orchestrated movements—The Shallow, The Dip, and The Deep—you'll meet four people profoundly, miss two completely by design, and finally unite as a single circle of twelve.
Curated teas, Tuscan snacks, botanical keepsake.
Includes:
THE SECRET PARTNER
A Digital Envelope
Before you arrive, you'll receive a digital envelope: a clue to find one specific person in the room. Someone who knows all David Bowie songs by heart. Someone who once lived in a monastery. Someone who is afraid of the color yellow.
Discovery
Discover them through conversation alone—no showing the card, no direct interrogation. By the time you reach the candlelit terrace overlooking the Duomo, the game dissolves into genuine recognition.
The Philosophy
We believe true intimacy requires selectivity. You will not meet everyone. The fifth person is your ghost—perhaps for next time, perhaps forever. This is not negligence. This is respect for limits.

OPONION is not a dinner party
It is a method. A structured alchemy of alternating movement and deepening stillness, designed to make you visible to strangers and strange to yourself.
