    uniE608 Tusciaè
    Tusciaè tells about an experience for the senses, a journey towards the discovery of places and of themselves, in close contact with nature, history and traditions. “One step, then another” is the story incipit, an invitation for traveller to discover the Tuscia with a personal rhythm and from all points of view: cultural, historical, gastronomic, spiritual. A journey in Tuscia is a unique experience, capable of profoundly changing the traveler. “One step and then another” becomes the personal way of deciding your own trip, letting yourself be guided by places and atmospheres. The film protagonist is a woman traveling alone (finally!), who savors every moment of this experience, and dance. The movement of her body expresses freedom, discovery, living. Our traveler walks, runs, dances, stops, touches, fully immersing herself in her progress and pulling the spectator to take “that step and then another” to get to experienceTuscia.
