Fiori di Strada - We Are Not the Crazy Ones

Directed by Olga Pohankova

The film is a reflection on the medieval folk tradition of "benandanti" ("good walkers"), who believed they had special powers to fight witches, ogres and demons threatening harvests and children. Who are the "benandanti" of today and who are the witches and ogres of our times? Can these assigned roles be put into question? The film analyses three stories, trying to recover the sense of truth and the truth of the sense, starting from the relations between individuals and the respect that every statement of the human race deserves.
