Homo Humilis

A young man, animals, the choice on the border with society. Stefano Cappellaro plows through the mountains following his goats. A nomad of places, he has a center within himself, but he is not antisocial. He found a way to support himself by getting milk from animals, water from rocks, food from the garden, and a little money for flour, rice and newspaper from some manual work. It is made of the same substance as the grass, the moss and the stone that frames the Valle Cervo, in the Biella area, where it lives all year round along the course of the stream of the same name. He doesn't accept this society; he longs for another one made up of authentic relationships. In the meantime, he does his part by giving an example of how it is possible to live with little, smiling.

The Healer

In the shadowed aftermath of the Second World War, Giovanni Velasques returns to his quaint hometown nestled in the breathtaking landscapes of Sicily’s mountains, bearing the scars of war inside and out. Haunted by wartime traumas, Giovanni’s tumultuous spirit finds solace in the wisdom of an elderly lady who unveils his extraordinary gift: the ability to harness the spirit of a departed soul and heal the tormented. But as Giovanni’s reputation as a healer grows, he finds himself on a collision course with two formidable adversaries: the church and the mafia. Torn between his mystical calling and societal pressures, he’s pushed into a corner of isolation, forcing him to forsake his magical calling and embrace the expected life of a family man and farmer. But will that sacred soul, worshipped like a god, truly be lost to oblivion?
