The vine bore fruit and it's harvest time. Soraia, a young girl, cuts herself. Blood mixes with wine. A black bull is on the loose. Up in the oak trees, time swells, and a community takes shelter. They share bread and wine, memories and dreams, the history of a landscape. We enter a long night, where nature also speaks. The fiery wind that brings the heatwaves is burning.
We shared bread and wine, pain and love, war and peace. We called our dead, memories, and history to help us tame the beasts and liberate us to celebrate life. Sometimes we like to imagine that cinema has the gift of sorcery.
