For thirty years, Francesco Fabretti has been the custodian of the House of Giacomo Leopardi in Recanati (Marche). Moving through corridors and hidden rooms by moonlight, he opens doors, listens to the house at rest, recalls the stories of visitors and students, uncovers forgotten legends from Leopardi’s family, and brings to life the everyday atmosphere that shaped one of Europe’s greatest poets. An immersive nocturnal journey leading to dawn on the hill of Infinity.
