SYNOPSIS
Internal and visual notes of an elderly director about to shoot her latest documentary. An intimate monologue suspended between past and present: thoughts, images, moods, primordial landscapes, the gazes of three traveling artists (Vittorio Alinari, Gaston Vuillier, Paolo Ventura) become suggestions and an author’s search for elusive inspiration.
