La chimera

Everyone has their own chimera. For the band of tombaroli (thieves of ancient treasures and archaeological wonders), the chimera means the dream of easy wealth. For Arthur, it looks like Beniamina, the woman he lost. Arthur searches for her everywhere. On an adventurous journey between the living and the dead, celebrations and solitudes, the intertwined destinies of these characters unfold.
