DAVIDE VIGORE

ITALY | 2016 | 15’

Can you steal a girl from her youth? Hind has been working as a caretaker in an elderly lady's house for a long time, spending his days doing the same things in an infinite routine, living in a continuous present, in the spasmodic expectation of something, of someone. In the evening, after having put the elderly lady in bed, Hind takes refuge in her room, full of dreams and hopes. It will be the old lady to make her understand the importance of youth.
