Encountering the person Akio Suzuki or his work is a kind of initiatory, mischievous trip. He was born in Japan about 60 years ago and was invited by some of my crazy friends, members of the association "Le Sentier des lauzes" (The stone roof trail), to stay in a valley of the Ardèche Cevennes. There, as a true craftsman and in his own way, he created a set of places related to sounds and time, to paths and hills. Akio takes us along to explore his off-kilter dream that is far away from any déjà-vu, power, mainstream productions or expectations. It is a journey, an introduction to another way of listening to the world.

Director: Barbara Vey and Vincent Sorrel.
This portrait of a film director unlike any other attempts to capture the essence of Vittorio de Seta’s rapport with the humble people he filmed and elegantly brought to Cinema Scope’s big screen in color from the 1950s onwards. From his home in Calabria, the film director looks back over his epic films. Starting with the sound on his earliest short documentaries, this craftsman of the screen and pioneer of sound tells us how he went on small fishing boats catching swordfish, to the depths of sulfur mines and to the top of Mount Stromboli to film and record. Then, evoking his feature-length films such as “Diary of a Schoolteacher”, “Half a Man” and “Bandits of Orgosolo”, Vittorio de Seta explains how filming other people also involves a certain amount of soul searching.
