THE GIRL WITH NINE WIGS

Category: Edition 2013

Synopsis
Sophie has just started her studies when she is diagnosed with cancer: her world is turned upside down. But Sophie is a fighter. She wants to live, with everything that’s part of life: dreams, parties, laughing, flirting and having sex. Nine individual wigs become Sophie’s elixir of life. Sometimes courageously wild, erotic or romantic, depending on the hair colour and style, each wig brings another aspect, another piece of Sophie to the fore. With humour, courage and a portion of lightheartedness, Sophie escapes from the everyday hospital drudgery, parties wildly with her best girlfriend, and falls in love with her buddy Rob.

Sinossi
Sophie ha appena cominciato a frequentare l’università, quando le viene diagnosticato un cancro: tutto il suo mondo ne è stravolto. Ma Sophie è una che combatte. Ha voglia di vivere, e di tutte le cose che fanno parte della vita: sognare, svagarsi alle feste, ridere, amoreggiare e fare sesso. Nove parrucche diverse, ognuna con una sua personalità, diventano la sua sorgente di vita. A volte è audacemente selvaggia, altre sensuale, altre ancora romantica, a seconda del colore e dello stile dei capelli: ogni parrucca lascia uscire e porta alla ribalta un nuovo aspetto, un altro pezzo di Sophie. Con ironia, coraggio e un po’ di spensierata leggerezza, Sophie fugge dalle quotidiane pene ospedaliere, si diverte sfrenatamente con la sua migliore amica, e si innamora di un amico, Rob.
