The subject of the film is the journey. The
actors are the director himself and his daughter, the young child Andrea
Vera.
The two main characters, between real and imaginary, take a trip in which
contemporary Berlin is the point of departure and the Adriatic sea the
arrival.
From the metropolis to nature, from the crystal to the liquid world,
inverting the biographic and artistic journey of the author, Italy-Germany.
A passage in reverse, in which his daughter Andrea becomes a kind of
alter ego to the author.
In the film, the places, as well as the "Dramatis Personae",
take on an almost metaphysical value.
In effect, the images may be read as an allegory of the age of man and
the ages of the world, of opposites that constitute the individual and
the passage of time, or again of the sublimely technological and the
sublimely natural.
