1. La Lucina
In a remote mountain hamlet, a solitary man spends his nights watching a tiny, persistent light flicker on a distant slope, an enigma that draws him through woods, ruins, and memories as he seeks its source. His search becomes a meditation on solitude, mortality, and the thin boundary between the living and the dead, where encounters with animals, echoes of war, and a mysterious child blur reality into myth. As he advances toward the faint glow, the world around him grows more elemental and uncanny, and the quest turns into an intimate reckoning with loss, hope, and the enduring pull of a fragile spark in the darkness.
