SYNOPSIS
Peppino lives in the Italian countryside, between Apulia and Basilicata. He dedicates his days and his works to land and animals. The time of his existence follows the movement of the sky and of the wind. You don’t need to know much about him: that little or that much, which is everyone’s life, is written in his eyes.
