Synopsis
For eleven year old Tommy, his family is his sister, at times a merciless bully, and his father Renato, a seemingly harsh and unjust disciplinarian yet perhaps only to better conceal a real tenderness for his family. The mother, Stefania, abandoned them time before. Father and children have settled over an almost routine peace. That is, until Stefania’s sudden return. Tommy’s mother reappears just as recklessly as she had left them, upsetting precarious equilibriums and defences, churning up buried pain, shattering dreams.
