Short Documentary: Teatro Andromeda

In a remote valley nestled between the gentle green slopes of the Sicani mountains, rural Sicily, an open-air theatre suddenly emerges on the horizon. Next to it, an ancient Greek mask made with white stone. What may look like well-preserved relics of an ancient civilisation turn out to be the works of Lorenzo Reina, a local shepherd who dedicated his life to art. Everyday, Reina puts earnest care in tending to his donkeys, farming his land and crafting his artworks. This film was shot during a visit to Reina's estate.
