So beautiful 😍❤️
Two beautiful souls supporting each other. It's heartwarming to watch.
I think i can survive hear i see Rossella have water i think if she has sameone young and with effort their can do nice with farming
I can live there, im from Philippines
5:06 abandoned due to landslides. The residents had to leave their homes.
The key to rebuilding "ghost towns" was exemplified in this video: rebuilding community around friends and family (adopted or biological). The future of posterity to this modern dilemma (anomie) lies in the past.
So happy to see they can cook on the stove👍
What a STUNNING woman Rosella is. Just stunning. We need more people like this on this earth. What courage and strength to go against the grain. These are the role models kids need.
What an incredible documentary and story. Excellently done! You can see they have lots of love for each other and I wish them both the very best! May rain come for their sustenance ❤️🙏✌️
Lack of water and natural disaster area mostly the caused the city abandoned
Soooo cooool!
They should open a guest house for visitors:)
👍👍👍
Who wants to move to a land where the worst of Italys Mafia dominates???
I would love to live there.
It was beautifully
I hope this is humanity's future, to resuscitate abandoned lives.
Rosella decided to go back to nature and be self-sufficient in 1980s long before it became fashionable.

Government should allow people of any country to settle in such places. I am 60 but still willing to live in n such a place😊

I’m so glad the documentary isn’t shaking him for being a refuge. Clearly he’s a respectable and hard working young man that was escaping violence and poverty.
