Corpo celeste Page #4

Synopsis: Set deep in the south of Italy, Corpo Celeste is the story of 13 year old Marta who is struggling to resettle after ten years growing up in Switzerland. Bright-eyed and restless, she observes the sights, sounds and smells of the city but feels very much an outsider. Marta is about to undergo the rite of confirmation. In the convention of the Catholic Church she takes catechism but confronts the morality of the local Catholic community. A series of subtle moments trace her journey as she connects and conflicts with her mother, sister and the Sunday school teacher Santa. From experiencing her period to making a bold decision to cut her hair, Marta begins to shape her own life for the first time since moving back to Italy. Corpo Celeste heralds the arrival of a young and distinctive voice. Alice Rohrwacher's writing and directing debut is a sensitive unveiling of the moral and religious layers that can smother adolescence.

- After Confirmation,

what else do we do?

Nothing.

We go to church, that's all.

- Do you read the Gospel?

- Every day, at mass.

You know what they said about Jesus?

- What did they say?

- That He was crazy.

Nonsense!

Yes, angry, furious.

It's all ready.

So, have you decided?

Will you transfer or stay here with us?

Where could I ever go?

There's a stain.

Everything is ready.

What a shame.

I was curious to see that crucifix.

You know what happened?

That girl Marta cut the ropes

and the crucifix fell.

Don't bad-mouth my sister.

My brothers and sisters,

first of all, I apologize

to the whole community.

Today our children

become mature.

Thanks to our Bishop Giorgio,

who...

with his...

presence

Wanna see a miracle?

Look!

It's still alive.
