This documentary captures life in a little village in southern Italy. Inspired by the migration of young people to the cities of the north, Burnt. Land of Fire tells about what¡¯s left in the village and how the older people live the last years of their life. Just like elderly faces ravaged by time, the walls of the unfinished houses decay slowly, returning to nature.
