SYNOPSIS
Under the eyes of the spectators, the skilled artisans who helped Carlo Scarpa to create the extraordinary monument of the Brion Tomb, parade and tell. Everyone has a story to share, a fragment of truth. Mysterious forms arise from the greenery of a countryside bathed in the morning light. And it is precisely light that guides the exploration of the Brion Tomb, illuminating its beauty and the complex symbology inherent in every form, every function, and every particular device.
