Synopsis

 

In an ancient agricultural house, silence crushes the soul of an untamed eighteen year-old, Chiara. Tommaso, her beloved grandfather, lies dead in the bed of her parents. As family prepares for the conformist goodbye parade, Chiara turns against the vacuous play of pain and imposed roles. Taking contact with the tragedy of loss she'll find the courage to wear the clothes that suit her best, and so doing goes through death by forcing silence on the sense of paradox.
