Summary
In a village in northern Italy cut off from the outside world, Stefano is tasked with restoring a haunting fresco on the crumbling wall of a church. This classic by Pupi Avati gradually transforms what begins as a routine art restoration project into an eerie mystery. Strange whispers echoing through the village’s narrow streets and the dark secrets of the past tighten the noose around the young man’s neck a little more each day.
