Marina and Federica have been together for five years now, they live in a gorgeous apartment in Rome, they
share the same bed, they use the same face cream, they make love, they fight, but they still don’t know if
they’re a couple.
Marina has it all: she’s beautiful, sexy and funny. Once a popular and loved actress, today she successfully runs a healthy food restaurant. She’s an independent, self-confident and curious woman, who knows what she
wants and has no doubts about her sexuality. She likes women and she loves Federica.
Federica is a busy respected architect with a marriage behind her and a grown up son in his twenties, she has a difficult time to keep up (but who doesn’t?). Marina is the first and only woman of her life. Federica is overly discreet and very different from Marina.
Marina and Federica’s love story suddenly reaches a crossroads. While Marina is happy to believe she is part
of a couple, Federica, after meeting a man she once had a crush for, experiences a crisis of identity and starts
asking herself what she really wants from life and love.
At times comedic and sometimes tragic, the answer will not be an obvious one to solve.
