Every morning, the church housekeeper trades a handful of the church’s dust for some of the shepherd’s fresh milk. Every evening, the elderly shepherd dissolves the «magic» powder in water and drinks this mixture to remedy his aches and pains. One day, he doesn’t show up for their trade. The next day, he dies in his bed as his goats keep vigil over his passing. A kid takes its first steps, but he is slower than the rest of the flock and falls behind. He falls into a ditch in the middle of the forest. Unable to climb out, he bleats for help, but neither the new shepherd, nor his dog, hear him. The flock leaves the kid in their wake, leaving him to his fate. When he finally emerges from the ditch, he finds that he is alone. He wanders aimlessly until, as night begins to fall, he stumbles onto a majestic fir tree in which he seeks shelter.

  • Journey to Italy Press Notes
    Janus Films Presents Roberto Rossellini’s Journey to Italy NEW DCP RESTORATION! http://www.janusfilms.com/journey Director: Roberto Rossellini JANUS FILMS Country: Italy Sarah Finklea Language: English Ph: 212-756-8715 Year: 1954 [email protected] Run time: 86 minutes B&W / 1.37 / Mono JOURNEY TO ITALY SYNOPSIS Among the most influential films of the postwar era, Roberto Rossellini’s Journey to Italy charts the declining marriage of a British couple (Ingrid Bergman and George Sanders) on a trip in the countryside near Naples. More than just an anatomy of a relationship, Rossellini’s masterpiece is a heartrending work of emotional transcendence and profound spirituality. Considered an ancestor of the existential works of Michelangelo Antonioni; hailed as a groundbreaking work of modernism by the critics of Cahiers du cinéma; and named by Martin Scorsese as one of his favorite films, Journey to Italy is a breathtaking cinematic landmark. Janus Films is proud to present a new, definitive restoration of the essential English-language version of the film, featuring Bergman and Sanders voicing their own dialogue. JOURNEY TO ITALY ABOUT THE ROSSELLINI PROJECT The Rossellini Project continues the initiative created by Luce Cinecittà, Cineteca di Bologna, CSC-Cineteca Nazionale, and the Coproduction Office as a means of rediscovering and showcasing the work of a reference point in the art of cinema: Roberto Rossellini. Three of Italian cinema’s great institutions and an influential international production house have joined forces to restore a central and fundamental part of the filmmaker’s filmography, as well as promote and distribute it on an international level.
