    • Synopsis
    • Maria (an impressive Pina Turco) is a survivor. A tough
      young woman who lives with the memory of a terrible
      childhood incident and who has a dissolute family relying on her, she fights to keep her head above water.
      Living in a bleak neighbourhood on the outskirts of
      Naples, Maria is inextricably caught up in the prostitution and child trafficking business. Treating everyday horrors as a way of life, everything changes for her when she discovers she is pregnant. Following his impressive Indivisible, director Edoardo De Angelis’
      latest is an all-too-credible drama, with Ferran Paredes’
      cinematography evocatively rendering a haunting
      landscape. Imbued with poetic sensitivity and conviction, while conveying the desperate reality of these characters’ lives, De Angelis’ film offers hope of escape and renewal.
