‘Love is repletion and the abyss and the fullnessof the sea’
              — Marguerite Porete


Charting three years of a Southern Italian bloodletting rite,
and one family's process of mourning, this is psychedelic ethnography that grapples with love, doubt, and religious devotion in the 21st century.
