Started as a filmdiary, “Ogni cosa nella luce si ritrae” is an attempt at assembling all the footage shot over the course of thirteen months through a logic capable of showing both its intimacy and distance. A hendiadys turned towards its incompleteness, towards the margin itself (here, each time: the film leader, the cut that links and separates the images), always and yet never entirely continuous/discontinuous, at the same time.

In a suburban landscape, the lives of several families interlace with loss, despair and personal crisis. Esther Gold has lost focus on all but caring for her comatose son, Paul, and neglects her daughter and husband. Lawyer Jim Train is devoted to his career, not his family. Helen Christianson wants to find a new spark in life, while Annette Jennings tries to rebuild hers.

Train operator Andrea Marcocci has to witness the suicide of a desperate man who jumps in front of his train. Under the influence of this shock he starts making mistakes. A check up by a doctor reveals that he's at the brink of becoming an alcoholic. Due to this evaluation he is degraded and must accept a salary cut.
