Ascensão

At dawn, a group of peasants tries to rescue the body of a young man from inside a well. Women veil their faces in silence while men endure the situation. In the centre of it all, a mother awaits her son's salvation. The wait is over. The boy's body emerges from the depths of the earth. How can life cease to be despite the enduring renewal existing in nature? In the distance, the sun sinks into the horizon; a new day lies ahead. (IFF Bratislava)
