Lucas, Letizia, Giovanni, and Federico are part of a crew of writers and spend their days in a forest that stretches along the railway. This natural place provides a secret refuge for the group, a limbo between childhood and adulthood. Lucas, however, is uneasy: something ominous is happening in the woods and he is the only one able to sense it. At night, when time seems to stand still, an unexpected encounter with a mysterious figure leads Lucas to a cathartic moment. With the first light of dawn, reality shatters the illusion of safety: a world where there’s no escape for wild animals can no longer be eluded.
