Bosco is an Italian village of 13 inhabitants surrounded by chestnut trees. An ocean apart, in Uruguay, Orlando, 103 years old, takes us on a journey that becomes a fable. Between Bosco and Salto, between imagination and memory, a dialogue is built, giving birth to landscapes that exist beyond time and reality. Filmed over 13 years, Bosco explores what remains when everything seems bound to disappear.
