Regional Competiton

In the late 80s, on the hills of the wine region of Cupramontana, Fabrizio founded the Sounding Nutshells Tribe. He decided to live in touch with nature and took up residence in an old farmhouse with no electricity or other amenities of modern life, where he receives anyone who wants to try this sort of lifestyle. Thirty years later, we meet Fabrizion, now aged 65, who is spending the summer with his nine-year-old son Siddharta. Siddharta's mother lived in the commune for a few years, before moving to Liguria, where her son comes to see her every two months. The boy's summer is spent preparing for the start of the new school year and playing with other members of the tribe, but also Sofia, a nine-year-old girl, staying with her grandpa not far from the tribe. With her, Siddharta learns about and tries a completely different way of life, beginning to question his father's rules.
