Carlo and Elisa are a successful couple living in Rome. He is a university professor and writer facing a creative block; she is a sharp, accomplished journalist with an international voice. Their life moves between intimacy and routine, something quietly beginning to fade.
Seeking a change of air, they travel to Morocco with close friends Anna and Paolo, and their thirteen-year-old daughter Vittoria, bright, curious, and unsettlingly perceptive. Beneath the surface, tensions emerge: Anna feels trapped in motherhood, Paolo retreats into silence, fin-ding in Elisa a rare sense of connection, while Vittoria turns an unexpectedly mature gaze toward Carlo.
Then there is Blu, Carlo’s 23-year-old student, and his lover. Her presence, far from accidental, disrupts the fragile balance, forcing hidden truths into the open.
