In his attempt to grow up and become a man, Pietro, a 15 years old boy who lives in the extreme south of Italy, begins to understand the reality in which he is growing up and touches what represents the most violent aspect of mafia: the silence.

Set in a tiny seaside town, Fabio Mollo’s feature debut is a quietly evocative drama about a family’s attempts to cope with the loss of their son, and the impact of his absence on his teenaged sister Grazia.
