    Nanbanjin ( The Barbarians from the South) is how the ancient japanese during 1500 were calling the first europeans to land in the Japanese Islands, they were mainly christians fathers came to evangelize as Missionaries.
    This work refers to some of them who came from Sicily and Italy.
    Starting from a simple but positive misunderstanding that happened in the very first meetings between Saint Francisc Xavier and the Zen buddhist monks, the director is leading the wiewer towards a reflection about the " first sight " impressions freed from any cultural or political frames that usually interferes with the perception. This very first exchange was based on the idea that Buddhism was a sort of lost Christian sect and the same thought the Zen people had towards this stranger who they thought was an Indian buddhist since the Christian were sailing mostly from India.
    The movie has been shot in a totally indipendent way in Sicily, Portugal and Japan.
