โœฆ Synopsis


The sensitive and powerful story of the love between a mother and her daughter, a love 'gone wrong from the start'. When Esperia exhibits the symptoms of dementia, her daughter takes care of her and help her to rebuild her disintegrating identity. Day after day we learn about the characters of the extended family, the small village still without running water or electricity, in a 'bright and harsh' Abruzzo.
