Michele Salimbeni

An island, a tree and a woman. Gestures that are repeated day after day with subtle variations. Until something sinister and prophetic, an echo of the outside world, breaks into this everyday life changing the course of things.

A Sardinian village in the early 20th century. "La Louve" tells the story of a woman so named because of her relationship with the men of the village. Her freedom has no place in the good manners of this small society, and will lead her to her her destiny.

Three tumblers wander throughout Italy with their show. A priest asks them to perform the Three Kings in a Nativity play, in a village where there are no children. That night a comet runs across the sky, so the three decide to follow it to search for the new Messiah.
