Inspired by true events, The Good Ground takes place in the largest wilderness zone in Europe, an Italian area close to Switzerland where there is no trace of humans, roads or villages. But someone actually lives hidden in that immaculate nature. Father Sergio, a Benedictine monk, has been living for 40 years in a restored lodge with Gianmaria, a mild mannered little man. One day Gianmaria returns with supplies from the nearest village…and a boy and visibly exhausted girl. Strangely, they have not come to see the old monk but another person who has been secretly living there, regarding a matter of life and death. Their arrival will put at risk the peace and serenity of one of the last spots of paradise on earth. (Sedona International Film Festival)

I had think long and hard about rating this film because I didn’t quite know how to approach it. However, I ended up with just two stars, because I won’t give a film good rating just because it takes place in nice locations with beautiful shots of the Alps when the 105-minute-long running time fails to provide much in the way of plot, the director doesn’t explain anything and some characters are rather annoying than interesting.
