    • Synopsis
    • Summer 1995. Celestino, Benso, Egle, and Aida are four friends who, after graduation, decide to spend their holidays together. Due to Celestino's great passion for the illustrator and esoteric expert, Giosuè Pietratagliata, the boy drags his friends to a campsite in Puglia, Stella del Mattino, managed by the enigmatic and beautiful Lidia and her son Anteo, the magnetic campsite lifeguard. However, the typical and cheerful holiday atmosphere, seasoned with unexpected infatuations and innocent secrets revealed, is soon disturbed by strange events involving each of the young protagonists one by one. After realizing that Stella del Mattino is nothing more than a prison from which they cannot escape, the youths discover that the owners of the dilapidated campsite are involved in a disturbing pact with the Devil himself, as well as Lidia's father and Anteo's grandfather. Their pact involves educating Anteo in evil and, through the sacrifice of a virgin, awakening the Antichrist within him to definitively subjugate humanity. However, Anteo wants no part in becoming the Antichrist and, with the support of a repentant Giosuè who regrets trying to impose his will on his son, decides to help the teenagers ruin Lidia's plans.
      Lidia, as the daughter of the Devil, reveals her demonic nature. Contravening the pact with her father, the demon has a much larger plan in mind: to become the key herself to open the gates of the Apocalypse and rule the
      world.
      Joining forces and appealing to their courage and sense of friendship, Celestino, Benso, and Egle, led by Aida, must each overcome their fears and insecurities to confront the seemingly unstoppable demon, averting the end of the world and saving not only their future, but above all, their holidays.
