The true story of the life of Gavino Ledda, the son of a Sardinian shepherd, and how he managed to escape his harsh, almost barbaric existence by slowly educating himself, despite violent opposition from his brutal father.
Gavino Ledda fights to shed his identity as a Sardinian shepherd through the quiet rebellion of learning to read. This visceral portrait captures a son’s struggle to outrun a father’s brutal, ancient traditions.
