Based on the short story Cálamo aromatico by Polish writer Jaroslaw Iwaszkiewicz, Lombardini depicts the life of Marta, a woman who finds herself paralyzed by a painful memory and one day meets German, the town’s mysterious womanizer.
Flores silvestres follows Marta, a woman suffering from an eternal pain she expresses through silences, lack of communication, and unspoken issues –and yet, it is there. The camera observes nature and physical spaces and provides a special density to them, as if they were silent partners in her mourning for something she lost forever. Her friendship with a young man from the area creates an interest triggered by its ambiguity: is there s sexual tension, or rather she sees in him a memory of what she lost? Is there an attraction or does the young man stand for the ghost of that past that still exists in Marta’s everyday life? Flores silvestres leaves these matters unresolved, because they may not have a clear answer. As if, in the end, pain blurs everything out. RB
