An enthralling tale on motherhood, grief and faith.
I would’ve liked to have seen a bit more character development, but overall it was a pretty good film.

What’s in a name?
This film diverted my expectations many times and was just beautiful tbh.
Everyone should watch this.
After reading the reviews and looking online I’ve seen no mention of Lince’s character which seems so odd to me. We had one vital scene that changes our perception of the character yet no one seems to be appreciating it. It’s a film of two stories and how they converge with one another through the common theme of a name. The desire to be able to name and save from limbo, and the rejection of a given name.
Makes me want to continue learning Italian

Nadando en una infinita angustia.
Su voz apagada busca el llanto pero el dolor silencia mi voz.
Espero por ti dónde el frío ruge y las penas congelan el suelo.

Un'avventura tra fede e fantastico, l'esplorazione di un luogo quasi magico trovato in Friuli.
Questo film è stato una bellissima sorpresa, Laura Samani è da tenere d'occhio
