Il tentativo di staccare l'anima, 8'35'' (2019)
Revisiting an old family photo album, Rosa traces the fading echoes of a lost rural world marked by extreme poverty, yet sustained by deep communal values and a persistent spiritual life. Through memories shaped by oral tradition, the film explores a culture where pagan beliefs and Christian faith coexist and intertwine, reflecting the syncretic spirituality of rural communities.
Shot across multiple formats, including Super 8, and drawing on archival home movies and family photographs, the film weaves together past and present through shifting images and immersive soundscapes, forming an intimate reflection on ancestry, memory, and healing.
