CFF40: Small Body

Laura Samani takes us on an epic journey over mountains and seas in this beautiful period drama set in Italy in 1900, shot in Friuli Venezia-Giulia and featuring dialect from the region. It follows the quiet and determined Agata (Celeste Cescutti) as she makes her way through many hazards and dangers whilst travelling to a remote region to perform a miracle for her stillborn child.
