Synopsis
Two teenagers damaged by life struggle together to regain lost innocence. Anna, 16, is on the run: a violent event traumatized her and made her lose her voice. After being rescued from a dangerous situation by Basim, an Ivorian illegal immigrant of the same age, she embarks on a dangerous journey with him through the mysterious and beautiful landscapes of Sardinia. In pursuit of Anna is Manfredi, the immigrant trafficker for whom her father worked. The girl, with her innocence, her strength and her beauty, has always been Manfredi's obsession and when she runs away, the man starts chasing her like a ferocious beast. Anna and Basim are alone in the world, their bond is their only strength, the rugged landscapes of Sardinia their only refuge.
