Basilicata Coast to Coast - plot
The film tells of an adventurous journey on foot of a group of former musicians of Maratea in the company of a nag (and a journalist not really happy to be in that group), through Basilicata from the Tyrrhenian Sea to the Ionian Lucani to attend a festival music in Scanzano.
Maratea represents the starting point of this strange journey that will end in a now deserted square of Policoro, at the end of the festival.
An event - miracle will quickly forget the group of friends the disappointment for not being able to attend the festival.
