A journey to the land of Lake Bolsena with some people living on its shores, villagers or travelers who came all the way from Africa to this stretch of land between Rome and Siena.

1 - TILL TOMORROW, 203 minutes

First encounters with the people of the lake. We share their experiences of this land, collective rituals that release bodies and minds into the same urge for freedom, of which the lake seems both the mirror and the source.

2 - SO FAR, 253 min

From princes of the old to today's Libya, history keeps moving through the land of the lake. Franck, Maria Pace and Moreno embody it and recount how powers turn the land into a territory. Their inventiveness is a resistant vitality in this little corner of our old Europe.

3 - TO THE ISLAND, 178 min

Planting, photographing, summoning protective ghosts, each invents an intimate bond with this land of the lake they live upon. Up to the mysterious Bisentina Island, secret heart of this imaginary that connects us to the common ground upon which all of us walk.
