Angela works as a cleaner in a hospital. She lost her husband due to a lung cancer caused by the asbestos dust he breathed when he was a worker.
One day she finds out that Francesco, the former employer of her husband, is hospitalized because of a brain stroke. Angela believes that the man is responsible for her husband’s death, so she takes advantage of Francesco’s aphasia to enter his house as a caregiver to take her revenge.
When her plan fails, Angela decides to face her enemy and she finds out an unexpected truth: when the guilty becomes a victim of himself, revenge can turn into forgiveness.
