The passion for old photos and some coincidences lead the young protagonist to discover the photographic archive and the research of the Friulian linguist Ugo Pellis. After 80 years, the curiosity to know the children in those photos leads him to embark on a journey to the places explored by Pellis in the 1930s. Lorenzo moves between Friuli, the place where Pellis began his investigations, and Sardinia, where he took most of the photographs.
