The Russian poet Andre, accompanied by a beautiful female translator Eugene, traveled to Italy to find out the life of an eighteenth-century Russian composer. Together they visited a rural church full of religious imagery and stopped in an ancient town with natural hot springs. At this time, he met Dominic, a madman who is not understood by the world . The villagers thought he was insane because he imprisoned his family in the early years. But Andre saw the deep meaning of Dominic's madness and was attracted by him. At the same time he rejected the show of affection from the sexy Eugenia. At this time, Andre could not extricate himself from the fragmented reality and surreal dream. His longing for the motherland, separation from his family, mixed feelings, entangled with each other, turned into a life-long Nostalghia

It's homesickness that can't go back, and faith that can't be guessed. These two emotions seem to be ingeniously combined. Except for some still amazing scene images and god-like scheduling, I don't like the way this film is handled. Eugenia’s explicit symbol of desire, Dominic’s speech and Andre’s last difficult lighting of candles, are extremely formalistic, almost spreading the truth on the screen, deviating from the aesthetics of the old tower.
