Sinopse
Una baby boomer italoamericana, combattuta tra i rigori del protestantesimo e l’indulgenza del cattolicesimo, racconta uno scorcio d’America e d’Italia dal dopoguerra fino a oggi.
È nell’area della Baia di San Francisco, nella Silicon Valley del business frenetico, che inizia il suo viaggio guidato dalle cinque pietre, che la mano di Dio le mostra in sogno. La sua singolare carriera professionale si intreccia alla ricerca spirituale: dalla Apple computer a un campo-scuola buddista, dai bambini malati terminali all’orientamento pastorale in un carcere femminile federale. La prova più importante arriva con la diagnosi di tumore. Dopo la guarigione, si è ritirata in un borgo italiano.
An Italian-American baby boomer, raised with the rigors of evangelical
Protestantism, relates of her experiences in the United States and Italy from
the 1960’s up to current times. Her search for meaning led her to the
mecca of her generation: California. Here she was awakened to her spiritual
life guided by five stones that God had shown her in a dream.
While pursuing her career at Apple computer, she attended workshops
at a Zen Buddhist School in New Mexico. She was able to care for terminally
ill children and work as a chaplain at a women’s federal prison.
Her most important spiritual test came with the diagnosis of cancer.
After healing, she retired in an Italian village.
