Vocalist Ilaria Graziano, one of the greatest performers of Italian neofolk provides vocals in the song “Pe ‘te sta’ cchiù Vicino” which is part of the soundtrack of the movie “Yaya and Lennie – The Walking Liberty” by director Alessandro Rak. The song was written by Dario Sansone of the Neapolitan rock group Foja.
The lineup includes Ilaria Graziano, the band Foja, guitarist Francesco Forni, actor and narrator Francesco Pannofino, trumpeter Ciro Riccardi and mandolinist Piero Gallo.

The music video of the song includes the drawings of Neapolitan director, animator and illustrator Francesco Filippini. A series of images that in sequence are the prequel of the film where the protagonists are the very young Yaya and Lennie.
