At the turn of the new millennium, on an unspoiled stretch of coast in southern Sardinia, Efisio Mulas, a solitary shepherd and custodian of times seemingly long past, defends his land from Giacomo, a developer determined to turn it into a luxury resort. The foreman at the site, Mariano, tries to convince Efisio to sell, while his daughter Francesca is torn between her attachment to her roots and the urgent need for change that grips her community. When the dispute winds up in court, a local judge from the area, Giovanna, finds herself deciding the case.

Directed by Riccardo Milani, with Diego Abatantuono, Aldo Baglio, and Virginia Raffaele

We are once again at the historic Angelico Hall on the campus of Dominican University in San Rafael. Built in 1921 and updated in 1989, Angelico Hall serves as Dominican's concert hall and guest speakers' venue. The new location offers the Italian Film Festival more comfortable theater seating, a larger screen, and improved picture and sound quality.
