The External Gaze.
Rita is filming her last project entitled “Journey to Sardinia”. Shooting on the island will mean for her the discovery of big emotions. The visions of some artists from other historical periods, including the photographer Vittorio Alinari and the painter Gaston Vuillier, will lead her mind to travel through the past and present of her life.
