Giulia is 40 years old and has an extremely inconvenient diagnosis. It will be Sandro, a discreet companion, to lead her on a journey of searching and challenge, a challenge to life and its list of ‘certainties’

DIRECTOR'S NOTES:
A beautiful woman, around 40 years old, is choosing a book at a stall while talking to her friend:
“You know, I’m wearing a wig, I'm taking chemo, it’s really painful but I’m strong, and I’ll get over this too”
She doesn’t take a book, they walk away, that’s where the idea for Altalena was born.
