A bleak winter in a cold and rainy Southern Italy: A woman in her early twenties works in an alienating job in a leather factory and feels the need to fill an absence in her life. One day on the beach, she has a sudden inspiration, and from that moment on her life also becomes someone else's. A voice on her cellphone becomes a tenuous line between her desires, her imagination, and the world around her.
