Elia

One day there is a creature that appears into the city. Elia. He came from the forest. Nobody knows who he is. Is a human without an identity even a human? For some he is a sensation, a new Kaspar Hauser. Others see in his appearance and his actions a wonder. He awakens secret longings within the people he meets that circuit themselves. The film is a silent dance between hope, love and desperation. A febrile dream where the levels between love and death seem to touch.
