Shot over a period of three years across Syria, Iraq, Kurdistan, and Lebanon, Notturno offers an intimate, human portrayal of life on the edge of war zones in the Middle East. Through a series of raw and poetic vignettes, the film follows people attempting to rebuild their everyday lives amid the lingering shadows of conflict. Rosi's contemplative approach reveals the resilience and humanity of those living in the aftermath of war, capturing moments of quiet reflection, daily labor, and fleeting joy.
