Up the hills between Liguria and France, a car goes up towards the Pre-Alps. Paolo Masieri, one of the most innovative of the great Italian chefs, has his vegetable garden, his country house, his herbs. Luca Guadagnino's camera follows him, moving among the fronds with the step of a weasel, sniffing the moss and the dried leaves of the chestnut trees, becoming nature among nature.

To mark the recent thirtieth anniversary of Sergio Leone’s death, this documentary sets out to pay tribute to one of the great legends of world cinema. The singular artistic vision of Sergio Leone has transcended national borders, creating the Spaghetti Western genre and transforming the international cinematic panorama forever with his innovative stylistic and narrative solutions, which have now become part of the language of the movies. The film, which is enriched with precious archive footage from the Cineteca di Bologna, including rare audio recordings and film clips shot behind the scenes, sees for the first time the direct participation of the Leone family and has interviews both with Leone’s longtime collaborators and with icons of Hollywood who have been profoundly influenced by his work.
A visual montage portrait of our contemporary world dominated by globalized technology and violence.
