1h 12m
From the depths of memory, a mysterious voice recounts the triumphs and growing shadows of the Po Delta, where a balance has been broken, perhaps forever. Amidst the mists of the past and the uncertainties of the present, the ecological resilience of a family of fishermen from the Sacca di Scardovari is revealed. The voice confesses to a decades-long deafness to the cries of the earth, and now the home is at risk of collapse. In the limbo of this cruel time, is it possible to rediscover harmony? The film invites viewers to lose themselves in the gaze of the Delta, to decipher its mysteries, and to question humanity's fragile place in this treasure trove of life.
