Under the Cold Stars(2020)

Set in the mountains of northeast Italy, this film may be considered an observational documentary about rural life.

As written by Franco Piavoli "it is a film which essentially relies on images and sound, where words themselves are sound and the music of life, of the relentless flow of time."
