Overview

It is summer in Milan; the city is quiet, and a mother and her young daughter, Daria and Lia, go about their daily routine. Daria no longer leaves the house and has created a small ecosystem of plants inside the flat. Lia only goes out to do the shopping and to work on her art project inspired by the myth of Demeter and Persephone. It is the images she films outside her home that lead her, little by little, to recognise her own destiny.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A quietly meditative portrait of two women confined to their Milan apartment, where the boundary between domestic routine and mythic self-discovery slowly dissolves. The film moves with patient observation as art and life begin to mirror each other.
