Ten acts to recount the origins of Italy and its civilization. Accompanied by the music of Claudio Monteverdi, verses by the great poets of Italian literature, read by Giorgio Albertazzi, and images of the Alps and Apennines, the film is a true representation of myths and legends that traces Italian history, from the Romans to the Middle Ages, and recounts the odyssey of a man journeying to the land of his forefathers.
