A serene but complex film that begins with an investigation into the craftsmanship of the zampogna, a kind of bagpipe from Calabria, to expand into a more general overview of a series of local traditions, seven to be precise, from various regions of Italy — Calabria, Marche, Liguria and Sicily. A film that speaks of traditions that cross generations, with a delicate and contemporary gaze, so that certain musical expressions of the oral tradition survive.
