Domus de Janas
Much like the rugged cliffs and dense forests of the North Shore, Sardinia’s landscapes are steeped in mystery and legend. In Domus de Janas, director Myriam Raccah invites you to explore Sardinia’s ancient burial sites—once thought to be the homes of fairies or witches—where past and present intertwine. As the film uncovers stories that connect ancient rituals to the lives of modern Sardinians, you’ll find echoes of the North Shore’s own blend of natural beauty and folklore. This cinematic fresco, shaped by the hands of local residents, offers a poetic journey that resonates with the wild, untamed spirit familiar to anyone who has stood on the shores of Lake Superior.

Domus de Janas
A village in the Sardinian hinterland.
While the drought is in full swing, old legends emerge from the territory, summoning characters and places suspended between two worlds.
A painter goes to work, young people practice traditional songs, a shepherd fights against the fire... Only the storm will calm the flames.
