Synopsis

A middle aged American woman unexpectedly discovers her true origin after her parents died. Deeply moved, in the midst of an identity crisis, she decides to travel, hoping to find her birth mother whom she had never known. She goes to a small and remote place in the South of Italy, Montedoro.

Our take

A getaway to a deserted, tomb-like Italian ghost town becomes a surreal, dreamlike journey into our volatile protagonist’s past. An assured, impressive debut feature, based on a true story and shot in hypnotic Super 16mm.
