Archival footage of a family turns into the poignant testimony of a woman who sees herself fifty years later. The director’s grandmother, now aged, shares her memories about life as a woman, the hopefulness of the 1960s, and the changing landscape of a town in the south of Italy troubled by a polluting steel mill. As the past is fading, remembering becomes seeing for the first time.
