A choir of men. A female conductor. A family and a small community in need of rediscovering the sense of unity to face the challenges of tomorrow. The young cellist Maria is disillusioned by the ruthless world of music. She returns to her mountain hometown of Luserna, a small enclave where an ancient language, Cimbrian, is still spoken. There, she finds a sick mother, a brother just buried due to a tragic tractor accident, a grieving sister-in-law facing significant financial difficulties, and a small community grappling with the early effects of climate change. Her connection with the glorious, yet now disbanded, male polyphonic choir of which her grandfather was a part becomes the key to rebuilding community, hope, and a future.
Event organized in collaboration with MonturaEditing.
