Giotto, Donatello, Brunelleschi and Michelangelo are some of the protagonists, stars of a Florence that is the center of the modernity's big bang. The Cathedral's events, in particular those regarding the dome's building, are compared to the human necessity to challenge themselves to find solutions, in a dialectical method that doesn't have an arrival point but always and only its passing. Evocative images of sculpture, architecture and great nature interchange with '40s and '50s archive's material in a mix of formats and languages that get the documentary close to the contemporary world.
