Short Film
A short documentary produced & directed by
Cecilia Pignocchi and Arthur Couvat.
Nestled among the cliffs of Italy’s Adriatic coast
lies a series of man-made caves, carved over generations by
a group of fishermen known as the ‘Grottaroli’.
Every morning a remaining handful of them, now in their seventies and eighties,
descend steep paths to their caves to continue their craft. Down there,
the sound of the waves becomes one with the ticking of time, as
the last of the Grottaroli reflect on their love for the sea.
