The love story between Cecilia Capece Minutolo and her husband is emotional: from the end of 1600 we receive her  “Odes" in memory of the lost husband. A kind of verses full of a sacred and high sense of love which, lived in this way, seems to be an irreconcilable feeling with our time. The fall of our tenderness as human beings lies into the violence that returns and increases its abandonments, in the past that we could not or did not want to elaborate and for this reason has no peace, and in the environmental disaster that phagocytes sick trees and people. But we can still dream, we don't know for how long, and if cinema is a dream, then at least in this space we should look our voice to take a stand against the refusal of the past and the loss of meaning. 
We can still choose a love that resembles us and that takes our hand even and above all when we limp in the street.
