CATALINA Y EL SOL

CATALINA AND THE SUN

Francia / 2015 / 15 min / Colour

Italian premiere

Stories nourish our existence, bring light and warmth to the world, and teach love to nature and gratitude for the sun. These stories are an integral part of the life of people in Argentina, and a means of transmitting knowledge and wisdom from grandparents to grandchildren and for understanding the profound essence of life. Just close your eyes beneath a starry sky and you will see much better. And so, according to an Argentine legend from Jujuy, once upon a time there was a little girl called Catalina. Every day she offered a fable to the Sun Tata Inti so it would shine in the sky.

  • Anna Paula Hönig
