Several peasant households live together on the farm. Their lives are simple and simple. They send children who cannot be raised to a nursing home. A boy’s pursuit of a girl (the two will eventually become married), and different families kill a pig together. Bringing early-ripening tomatoes to the market to sell, etc., daily events such as this ubiquitously demonstrate the honest relationship of the people on the farm. It has a slightly sad ending. A father was driven out by the farmer because he cut down a tree on the farm to make clogs for his son. The picture music is graceful and graceful, and there must be a deeper tranquility after the occasional noise. Because interpersonal relationship is the theme that the film wants to show, there is no absolute protagonist. Although religious elements are not deliberately emphasized, they appear many times in the story, and it does bring comfort and hope to the lives of farmers.

    I feel that the simple divinity in the natural work of farmers can be photographed from these techniques: coherent and de-dramatic sequence of actions, elimination of central roles, complicated environmental sound design, medium and long-range view-based framing, elimination of creation The judge’s personal values. The scene of the newlyweds sailing on the river truly has the supreme beauty of cinema. Worthy of being the finale of the golden age of Italian cinema. It's so powerful that it bursts.
