Plot

In the Basilicata region of Italy, Rocco, is a severe farmer who fights incessantly for his land, lives with his daughter Lucia, a girl raised like a savage, with no education that has become mute after her mother, Argenzia's death. Lucia seems to be in contact with her mother but Rocco misunderstands her "dialogues with the wind" as a form of madness and turns to a peasant scorceress to cure Lucia.

The situation completely overturns when Rocco is offered the possibility to earn money in exchange for burying toxic waste in his land. Rocco refuses and is threatened. While escaping an aggression, he kills one of the thugs. Rocco and Lucia have to escape and they begin a long journey through a hard and dying land where Rocco will try to find redemption and Lucia, forced to abandon the memory of her mother, will find her voice again and become a woman. In the end she will help her father as well.[3]
