The peaceful balance of a family living in seclusion on an island at the mouth of the Po River is shattered by the unexpected arrival of two fugitives on the run after a robbery.

Fishing, more than anything else, is the place where man finds life. This is true of the Delta of the Po river, where the story of fishing gives its very meaning to the river and the river gives its very meaning to the lives of those fishermen, whose daily life becomes absolute. A diptych composed by: "Il pesce siluro è innocente" (60') - Two experienced eel fishermen in the Goro inlet; a young woman and a man dedicated to harvesting clams and mussels; a fisherman who raises show fish along the river canals. "Per soli uomini" (83') - Along the Po di Maistra, in the Ca'Pisani area, in one of the valleys the river creates at its mouth, live three men dedicated to fish farming.

When Irena Ruppel, a fascinating Slovenian woman, arrives in a valley of the Po river, she is hosted by a man of that area, Gabriele. She seems to know a lot about Gabriele, whom at the same time is intrigued by this woman who doesn't speak Italian but she seems to understand everything that happens around her. Once she leaves, she gives a weak clue to Gabriele: her name and Tolmin, the name of a locality at the borders between Italy and Slovenia. Gabriele can't help it and goes to look for her, taking a journey that will bring him to the truth about his parents, himself and this woman who threw his calm life into confusion.

Luigi Ghirri's final project, unfortunately unrealized, was a "house of the seasons": to purchase a farmhouse, which appears in the photographer's last works, near his home in Roncocesi, and to stage exhibitions there, each linked to the current season, thus creating a close connection between natural time and artistic time. This interrupted project inspired "Pink Desert," in which the camera 'visits' a series of landscapes photographed by Ghirri according to the changing seasons: Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter, and Nocturnal Spring. Aleksandr Sokurov narrates each season depicted in the film, focusing in narrative form on Luigi Ghirri's sense of the cyclical nature of time.

It is a completely human sacred story that the Sacro Monte di Varallo, in the masterpieces of Gaudenzio Ferrari, Tanzio da Varallo, Gherardini, Morazzone, Ceranino, delivers to us, and which the cinematographic gaze, as if on an uphill climb, struggles to grasp. You get closer to where the visitor's eyes cannot reach, beyond the grates, the glass, the borders that protect and keep away these statues/paintings/people, you get confused among them, inhabiting their houses/chapels and meeting one by one all the characters of this petrified crowd.

Ghosts of the voice - Antonio Stagnoli, commissioned by gallery director Arialdo Ceribelli, describes Antonio Stagnoli's works and world, a deaf-mute painter from the age of two, born in Bagolino in 1922. Antonio Stagnoli dreams his life among living and inanimate connections, those of his house and his places. As to his relationship with the real world, he perceives and describes only echoes coming from a dark realm, in the restless hiss of a way of conceiving, here conveyed by Tom Cora's cello. An "expressionism filled with local tones", and also with few oneiric tinges almost Lithuanian, gives rhythm to Antonio Stagnoli's voice telling about the "Polyptych" of his life and stares at the darkness (of cinema), trying to say something else. And around there, as enrico ghezzi says, "it seems to us that animals are like hypnotised. Nobody actually knows whether they have been gazed by someone, or what happened to them, whether they have been to the movies, or they come from the movies.

La nave sul monte is the opening song on the album È bello perdersi by the band Extraliscio, and their opening number for all their concerts. Highly symbolic, it celebrates the beauty of the imagination and impossible dreams that come true, the effort that goes into them, the wait, the joy at last. It's a film about songs that is openly inspired by Werner Herzog's masterpiece Fitzcarraldo and revisits the choir "Le Mystère des Voix Bulgares", here in the form of a colorful troupe of dancers from Romagna.
