Filmed in San Vito di Cadore in 1955, the film shows the filmmaker’s daughters with family members during a summer mountain excursion. The footage alternates close-ups and wide shots: a girl holding a book in a meadow at the foot of the Dolomites; the two sisters smiling as they pose in front of a large fir tree; and finally the family gathered on a grassy slope, with the mountains in the background. The camera creates a series of simple, direct family portraits set against the Alpine landscape of Cadore.
