La ballata di Geraldina

Directed by

The occupation of the female donkey Geraldina and of her master, the storyteller Claudio, is dying out. There is nobody left to listen to their stories dealing with mountains which look like princesses and lakes hiding pirates. On and on walks Claudio, together with Geraldina. They run and never stop. From one mountain to another they revive forgotten legends and lost traditions, fearing that the "God of Time" may wipe everything out.
