Director Gianfranco Rosi films in gorgeous black-and-white to immerse us in the community near Mount Vesuvius where the past and present intermingle. The film is a homage to the city of Naples that faces dual volcanic threats from Vesuvius and Campi Flegrei. Amid Increasing tremors, archaeologists work as residents live anxiously, haunted by Pompeii’s fate while emergency services strain.
