In Barbagia, a vast region of Sardinia that includes the towns of Orgosolo, Oliena and Manoiana, most of the men are shepherds and stay outside the village, while the women have to deal with all the domestic duties and the children. Thus in a silence broken only by their songs and the sporadic arrival of the bus, the women cut wood, take care of their children, hoe the ground and for a rest, sit sewing on the doorstep.
