    • Synopsis
    • Ponticelli, about 60,000 inhabitants, once a very fertile horticultural reserve, is one of the Eastern neighborhoods east of Naples torn by the transformations of the last 40 years. Yet this "big back of the city" seeks redemption every day and is pregnant with life and the future. The humanity of the minimal stories and the beauty of the extensive landscapes intersect in the story and are a trace to recognize identity. The film recounts this transversal gaze of an apparently unchanging territory, yet rich in stories and history, relationships and communities, ideas and energies. The puzzle of people and places, fragments of a mirror that has fallen apart but which can be glued and put back in place.
