Plot
We have seen where to watch The Light in the Farm on TV and live streaming, but what is the plot? The TV film tells the story of the arrival of the new medium in a family in Southern Italy in the 1960s. More precisely in a family from Matera, a city in Basilicata which about fifteen years earlier had been defined by Palmiro Togliatti as “national shame” for the poor living conditions of the inhabitants. This is a population that 95 percent supports itself with agriculture and which still has quite significant emigration (to the north and abroad).
The story takes place precisely at the moment in which progress, also brought by the first factories, causes the emptying of the countryside. People experience disorientation due to the implications that this process triggers in social relations of millenary tradition. The one narrated is a family like many others, in which the advent of modernity causes a fracture within peasant civilization and compromises those moments of sharing and sociality that have always been inherent to it. Life in the countryside was tiring and difficult, but the family was united and, in the eyes of the children, living all together was happiness. Yet, it will be television that will keep that sociality alive. Gathering around the television becomes a collective and social experience thanks to the aggregating force of the programs of the time.
