Sinopse
The first idea was to make a film constructed as a sketchbook, something like a diary of a journey; that’s why I used a Super8 camera. The result is an image unstable and mute. A sharp uneasiness moves passing through landscapes. I was looking for what remains to be seen: ruins. There are some places, in Calabria, where human presence belongs to the past. Entropy is everywhere. At the same time, it is still present in Calabria a powerful sentiment of Nature. It is something that I find in Hölderlin’s poems. While I was filming I understood that my images were linked to the memories of what was the south of Italy in my childhood: sun, dust, silence, stones, sometimes rain, and obviously the first contact with ancient art. With this little film I tried to keep a simple gaze fixed on things, trying also to capture the ancient force of these special places.
