Alberi (Country: Italy; Year: 2013; Director: Michelangelo Frammartino; Writer: Michelangelo Frammartino)
Wrapping the audience in waves of sound, Alberi takes us on a circular journey through the Italian countryside. The natural music at the tops of the eponymous trees makes way for the rhythmic cadence of civilization - men baring axes and the natural clatter of daily life - before their unforgettable return home from the forest.
