Ecce Mater tells the story of a mother and her love, powerful like that of the Ecce Homo, capable of restoring trust, warmth, and a sense of 'normality' in a situation where life itself is severely challenged by an unpredictable and uncontrollable event such as an earthquake. A love expressed through small gestures, comforting words, and closeness, which will guide little Emma toward rebirth. A love capable of performing miracles.
