A Motion Picture That Celebrates The Timeless Joy of Original Innocence

DramaHistory

In his delirium from his return from war, Francesco Bernardone goes back in his memories to the days when he lived for parties and carnal pleasures. He slowly recovers, but after the illness he is no longer the Francesco that everybody knew. Instead of spending hours in taverns, he meditates on the beauty of God's creatures, soon renouncing his riches and his family with plans to rebuild an abandoned church and his life.

VIBE

A visually stunning, meditative journey into faith and finding peace. It feels like a sun-drenched, spiritual awakening, a gentle call to embrace simplicity and the divine in the natural world. A quiet, contemplative experience.
