A dark, introspective drama about guilt and redemption, where a man's spiral toward self-destruction is tempered by the possibility of salvation through human connection.

Davide’s life is turned upside down by a tragic event for which he bears an unwitting responsibility. Devastated by guilt, he is driven to a series of seemingly irrational choices that gradually lead him toward profound consequences. Yet, through his deep emotional bond with Elsa, Davide may still find an unexpected path to peace.
