An Italian production movie set in the 1900s.

Small Body captures mourning Agatha who is desperately trying to save her stillborn baby from eternity in limbo. She embarks on a journey to a church in the mountains, which according to a folk legend has the power to bring infants back to life for just one breath, to baptise them and save their soul. On her backbreaking pilgrimage, she meets Lynx, a solitary boy who offers to help her. And so, they travel side-by-side towards something that is close to a miracle.

Part of Hyde Park Picture House‘s Picture House Presents – programme of independent releases, cult-favourites and special events – screened at Leeds University Union.
