This film is the result of two months research about the traces left by the intangible cultural heritage in Valle Camonica, a mountain area that have attracted the mankind since prehistoric times. The people involved in the film are the film itself, places of a cinematic topography, talking landmarks, story pointers reachable only through various means of transport and narrative metaphors. Every time you tell a legend, you recreate it. That’s why this San Martino tastes like electric water and garage oil.
