    • Synopsis
    • Francesco is an artist who lives immersed in the green heart of a shady valley and leads a rural life, detached from the contemporary world. His days are a never-ending ritual made of effort and mystery.
      He reflects about the meaning of life, he wonders what is the point of making such an effort, if our existence is volatile.
      During his days he takes care of his goats: he milks them, takes them to pasture and feeds them. Then, he takes care of his beloved bees. His artworks are produced with the help of a swarm of bees. Their hives become amazing sculptures.
      In exchange for their work, he lets the bees fly free, knowing that they will return.
      In his mind and in his ideology everything goes back to where it came from.
