Cinema at the Institute – LANDSCAPES IN ITALIAN CINEMA (Set in Turin)
Director: Salvatore Mereu. Cast: Yael Abecassis, Michele Carboni, Caroline Ducey, Daniele Casula. Italy. 2003
Four tales of life in a rural Sardinian village, each with its own color palette and an age-appropriate hero or heroine, is the canvas on which Salvatore Mereu paints a batch of cinematic portraits in these character-driven short stories each connected to one of the four seasons. For the Spring, he tells the story of a boy’s fancy and his love for the sea he’s never seen. Summer introduces the shepherd whose sheep appeared in the previous tale. Autumn follows the returning of Sister Francesca from her convent to the village of her birth for her sister’s wedding. The final Winter’s tale concerns Giorgio, an old man from the wedding who lives alone in a city, far away from the village.
