A short imaginary journey, between music, words and shadows, to discover the figure of San Rocco suspended between body and spirit, between blood and soul, in a story that draws inspiration from popular traditions on the figure of the venerated French pilgrim and miracle doer, patron saint of numerous cities and towns in Italy, in the eighteenth-century church of San Rocco in Moasca.
