Working with someone who has dedicated their life to a place—a small patch of land, a field of grass, trees, and tombstones, on a tiny island in a small lagoon—offers a unique perspective on the relationship between things and time.

The cemetery, which Aldo has considered "his" since childhood in the late 1930s, became a refuge from the torments of World War II and remained a constant presence in his life for decades, up to the present day. It is a place where a biography intertwines with the land, and where the essence of the place itself can only be understood through the stories of a lifetime.
