In an age where most documentaries are about the filmmakers instead of the subjects, the ancient art of observation without disturbance is a breath of fresh air.
De Seta manages to make you smell the wheat, feel the breeze, and squint in the sun, all without a word. Masterful.

One thing about this challenge to watch two films a day has opened me up to short films I think I have felt more excited about film in some ten minute short films then I do in half the full length films it’s this idea of trying something and showing just a bit in the most beautiful way that gets me excited and feeling funny inside.
