In 1983, Don Fornasari documented an outdoor lunch near Lago Nero (Black Lake), in the territory of Ferriere, in the Piacenza Apennines. The sequence shows a group camped out, with a fire lit among the stones. The men are cooking fish in a pan, feeding the bonfire with pieces of wood, and showing the catch of the day to the camera. After the preparation, the group relaxes on the grass and on mattresses, sharing the meal accompanied by red wine.
