Evrything has changed

Francesco Sauro / Italy / 2007 / 13 min / Colour


In 1901, a man is murdered in mysterious circumstances in the Lessinia and so begins a never-ending nightmare. The film reflects upon the desertion of the small hamlets of the Lessini mountains and accuses the "ancient object predators" (those who go into the abandoned houses robbing them of traditional objects and - more significantly - the identities of their former occupants) of expediting their demise. In a visual collage vascillating between the dream-like and the real, we see tragic evidence of the abandonment of the hamlets. We are also shown the poetry that, for those who seek out these local beechwood forest hamlets, awaits.
