After birthing a stillborn child, the grieving Agata is tortured by her Catholic faith - specifically the belief that her baby's soul lies in eternal Limbo. Hope comes in the form of a mystical sanctuary in the middle of the mountains which can allow her baby to live for just one breath - just long enough to be blessed. Against the wishes of her husband and community, Agata embarks on an Orphean journey across north-east Italy, along rivers and into forests brimming with ancient power. Echoing the folkloric aura of Alice Rohrwacher's HAPPY AS LAZZARO, Samani's odyssey is stunning and strange in equal measure.
