A BRAVE OLD WORLD

I need to recover that world to change this one”, Laura says.
Then she starts searching among memories, letters, friends; she listens to the piano, climbs the mountain, looks for the landscape full of snow where she was born. She travels again to visit the house where her adoptive grandmother, Yenia Dumnova, lived (and died). It´s a retrospective search, a historical and emotional reconstruction made of scraps, photographs, archive documents and fiction.

While unraveling the secret history of Yenia, admiring her for her commitment, her sensitivity and her ethical integrity, Laura will also rediscover her own path: her relationship with exile, with time, family, art, adulthood and death.
