It is the beginning of my time" it says right at the start of the film. The Italian sculptor Arnaldo Pomodoro (98) sees one of his early works again after 60 years and takes the audience on a journey full of memories and full of craftsmanship precision. The protagonist of the film is the relief "L’ Inizio del Tempo". It has almost been destroyed beyond recognition and is now being restored step by step. Arnaldo Pomodoro's memories of his successful life merge with the rebirth of this work of art. The spectators immerse themselves in the studio of the artist in Milan and the sounds of the grinding stone will echo for a long time.
