Miya e Jin
Tanaka Miya is an artist who reassembles ceramics with the old Japanese technique of Kintsugi, fixing the various shards with fine gold to give them a new life as “a metaphor for struggles of existence, which make people more mature and better, while they overcome suffering”. Miya and her husband, Tanaka Jin, move to Italy for work needs; guests in one house built next to an old abandoned mill. Right from the beginning, the distance between the two protagonists is evident: they eat and sleep together but act like two strangers. At night, Miya and Jin are awakened by a loud splash of water e gears reminiscent of that of an old mill. Every night sounds are repeated keeping the two spouses awake who, with the passing of the days, are more and more sleepless and worn out by fatigue. Together they will have to find the source of those hellish noises and tear down the wall that separates them to find eachothers.
