The Water's Tale
The Water's Tale
2021, English. Directed by Virginia Eleuteri Serpieri.
In 1998, the director’s mother came to the Tiber River, waited until dawn, and then the water took her forever. The suggestive memory carries the audience through a tranquil voyage, allowing them to observe the riverbank during the day, at night and at dawn, with the mother’s face at the centre of the passing image throughout.
