Le montagne si sollevano come piuma

by Federico Spinetti

Bosnia, Ramadan 2013. During the doomsday, so the Koran says, the mountains will rise up as a feather. A merciless calamity or an eventual release from the burden of pain? The film gives voice to a daring personal attempt to understand the suffering and the resistence in Bosnia. Mostar and Sarajevo are seen in passing, through the fragmented viewpoints of a confraternity of dervishes, a rock musician and a muezin. Keystones of the narration are the psalm De Profundis of the Old Testament and the surah Al-Qari'ah of the Quran, in/evocatons of the divine sign.
