With a neorealistic touch, Salvatore Mereu portrays an archaic world in the wild lands of Sardinia. Raffaele is an elderly farmer who doesn’t embrace progress and relies on hard work and the power of the wind to take care of his harvest. His days are stretched to infinity, and the young Angelino is the only touch of color.
