인류에게 필수적인 선(善)과 그 잠재력을 노래하는 한 곡의 찬가이다. 인류 위에 존재하는 신, 그들이 우리에 대한 슬프지만 희망을 간직한 대화를 나눈다. 그들이 나누는 다섯 번의 대화는 경이로움과 곤혹스러움, 슬픔과 즐거움, 자신감과 심지어 용감함으로 가득 차 있다. 평생을 함께 작업해 온 두 영화작가가 선사하는 독특한 웰메이드 대화 교향곡이다.
In Italy, immediately subsequent to the war, a group of people who lost all they possessed during the conflict, settle in a village in ruins. They intend to restore the city from the rubble and re-start life, in imitation of the women of Messina who rebuilt their city, destroyed as it was by an earthquake. Oscillating between respect and suspicion, co-existence between group members is tense. Things become complicated when an envoy from the government arrives to say that nothing there belongs to them. The film is a free adaptation of fragments of the novella ‘The Women of Messina’, by Sicilian writer Elio Vittorini.

A group of men and women have been brought together after World War II, when Italy regained its national and territorial unity. They make up a primitive community which seeks to erase not only the distress created by the war but also the hardships of life, and look to protect themselves from violence, misery and fear. Amid the ruins of this post-war period, these men and women build a new rapport between themselves, between sexes, between generations, between social and geographical origins, between political camps.
