Amidst the mists and pristine nature of the Aspromonte (Calabria, Italy), an archeologist and two of his assistants are searching for an ancient treasure. From the ground, opened up by the excavation, three nymphs emerge. Once set free, the mythical and enigmatic creatures come into contact with the inhabitants of an isolated mountain village, causing a series of mysterious and terrifying events.
DIRECTOR’S NOTES:
Halfway between scientific research and commercial venture, the archeological excavations at a remote and timeless location in the Aspromonte wound the earth and disturb the relationship with the past. The nymphs, figures from a mythical age but also violent forces of nature, have appeared to reestablish the distance between human beings and the mysteries of the world.
