«Soccer is the last sacred representation of our time», Pier Paolo Pasolini.
Taranto, April 2022.
Fate makes the city of the two seas the scene of an incredible coincidence.
After two years of pandemic, the Holy Week rituals have returned, followed by the “Derby di Puglia” between Taranto and Bari, which had been missing for 29 years.
In three intense days, the sacred and the profane intertwine in search of a sincere synthesis of traditions in the heart of a city.
The documentary attempts to cinematically represent the experience of a lost space-time, in which tradition, community, and folklore meet in the various possibilities of faith and belief.
