Days and works

About This Movie

So, 'Days and Works' is this quiet documentary that really draws you into Peppino's life in rural Italy. It’s not just about his daily routines but how they connect to nature – the land, the animals, the sky. The film moves at a gentle pace, almost meditative, allowing you to soak in the atmosphere of Puglia and Basilicata. There’s a certain rawness to it; no glitzy production, just real-life moments that feel intimate. You notice how his existence ebbs and flows with the environment, which makes you reflect on your own relationship with the world. The lack of a known director somehow adds to its charm, making it feel more like an observation than a crafted story. It's distinctive in its simplicity, and there’s beauty in that.
