Synopsis

Synopsis

50 years ago, a caesura. An emigration movement thatt began with a train.
Then a settling, where we would have wanted to just be transient visitors. Since my childhood, I was rocked with travels back and forth between Belgium and Italy. When my grandmother died, this rocking stopped... Over the years, her body had become at one with the village, thus becoming a holly field... Mourning her, it appeared to me that another mourning had to be made, the one of a ground mother.
Today, I 'm back in this territory that became a welcoming land from where the stories of the newcomers rise up.
Campo Santo - Holly Field tells us about the mourning of a territory. The movie crosses the voice of the director's parents, who left Esanatoglia 50 years ago, the one of her dead grandmother, Tarquinia, and the one of emigrants who settle down today in this secular village of Marche, in Italy. Through the maze of its alleys, Esanatoglia breathes and sighs, laughs and sings. It is a ground mother. It is the body and the voice of Tarquinia.
