Synopsis

Gioia is a high school teacher who has never known love except the oppressive one from her parents, whom she still lives with. Among the students at her school is Alessio, who uses his body as a tool to get a few hundred euros and help his mother, a cashier in a supermarket. Between Alessio and Gioia a forbidden, fragile bond is born which is and inexplicably necessary for both of them. But Alessio’s desire for social and human redemption is a silent poison that prevents him from being definitively won over by Gioia’s disarming sweetness. Therefore, he destroys everything and gets rid of the only person who ever loved him.
