Under the Surface

A small walled village on a mountain top in Italy gives a surface picture of pastoral, peaceful, bucolic monotony; yet underneath that surface lies a world of emotions and a sea of changes. Quickly one discovers what Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. called the interrelated structure of reality. From kidnappings to murder; from teenage angst to mature passion; from prejudice to understanding; from greed to benevolence; from festivals to funerals--this small village reveals that what affects one, affects all.
