The Years is a 2020 Italian drama film directed by Sara Fgaier, which explores the fragmented memories of a woman who has lived on the shores of Sardinia for many years. The film features a female protagonist who reflects on her life while sitting on the beach, observing the world around her.
Using a mix of footage, both old and new, the film presents a collage of moments from the woman's past - her childhood, her teenage years, her young adulthood, and her old age. The film focuses on her personal journey of discovery, as she tries to make sense of her own life and come to terms with the things she has experienced.
Throughout the film, the woman's thoughts are voiced through poetic narration, which gives a sense of introspection and contemplation to the story. The Years is a beautifully shot film that explores themes of identity, memory, and the passage of time. It offers a unique perspective on what it means to live a life, and what it means to reflect on that life once it has been lived.
