Synopsis
Story of an invisible past told from the perspective of ruins. A short melancholy revision of our recent history and a visual narration of the emergence and evanescence of an epoch through elements of landscape and architecture. The film imposes no definitions nor makes any assertions, but in a very open and suggestive manner takes the viewer on a visual journey, a daydream, through the ravages of war and post-war reconstruction.
