It is a hot summer afternoon, Emilia and Leo are exploring the countryside near their home: a deserted and boundless place in the middle of the plain, where time seems to stand still. They walk hot, under the sun, trying to fight boredom with what they find around them. When they pass in front of a painter’s house, about which strange legends are told, they are attracted and decide to climb over the gate and sneak into the house.
This story tells us something we all experienced as children: the attraction of danger in doing something you shouldn’t. Play becomes mission, adventure, courage. One abandons ordinary fun to encounter the forbidden, and when this happens, the power of suggestion is very strong. In our memories as children, the real and the unreal meet, mingle, coming into contact.
