A film of great contrasts, made up of blinding light, of solar skies but also shadows. Between these two worlds, torn between opposing forces, Anna starts a real revolution in her life.
The film follows a gang of youths who spend every day collecting scrap metal from derelict houses. They live in Pozzuoli, an old fishing village which has repeatedly been hit by earthquakes.
The story of a housewife who, in order not to go mad, commits her pain to four notebooks. It is also the story of her slow but lucid and life-affirming liberation from a marriage that was suffocating her freedom.
