Synopsis
<p>Movida is a movement, a path, a search for life in a depopulated world. A tree transformed into a human being and forced to move in a desert world, or children and teenagers who try to understand where their future will be. I merged poetry, archival film footage and observation documentary to tell the depopulation of the Italian province, but through the eyes of young people. </p>
