The Four Times

2010, Movie, 1h 28min

An old shepherd lives his last days in a quiet medieval village perched high on the hills of Calabria, at the southernmost tip of Italy. He herds goats under skies that most villagers have deserted long ago. He is sick, and believes to find his medicine in the dust he collects on the church floor, which he drinks in his water every day.

...it feels like a privilege to have visited such a little-traveled part of the world, and to have been shown so much while by watching it.

Here is a film that invites philosophical musing. Made without dialogue and often in long shots, it regards the four stages of existence in a remote Italian village.

If you are tired of wittering, headache-inducing nonsense at the cinema, then this is for you. Try it.

Frequently asked questions

What is The Four Times about? Toggle content

A poignant and visually stunning exploration of the cyclical nature of life, death, and rebirth, set in a remote medieval village in Calabria, Italy. The film follows four interconnected storylines, each representing a different stage of existence: human, animal, plant, and mineral. We witness the life of an ailing old shepherd, who believes that the dust from the church floor holds the key to his survival; the birth and growth of a young goat; the majestic beauty of a fir tree; and the transformation of wood into charcoal, symbolizing the delicate balance between nature and human existence. Through these vignettes, the film ponders the mysteries of life, death, and the interconnectedness of all things. The result is a cinematic poem that is both deeply moving and thought-provoking.
