The precious superimposition of two diaries: the personal one, written and filmed by the director and his companions of moments lived in Manarola, and that of Telemaco Signorini, an artist focused on the Cinque Terre who feels the need to nourish his figurative obsession with theoretical insights for that same place where Amico's daily life takes place with Olympic prosaicity.
