Superstizione (1949)

English titles: Superstitions; Superstition.

A short "documentary", the quotes meaning that it wouldn't be considered a documentary by present standards, by which you can't have anything staged in it. It's about the various superstitious practices of rural villagers in Southern Italy at the time of the filmmaking. I can't really say I viewed this film, since I couldn't understand practically anything of the narration. But, speaking only of what could be visually aprehended, it's awesome.
