- Synopsis
- The daily life of a 32-year-old woman suffering from agoraphobia, SECONDA, suddenly changes when her mother dies and her father abandons her. Alone and unable to leave her home, she clings to the phone messages of a snarling bailiff who one day stops calling. Unable to end her life, she offers a deal to SANTO, a bottle collector: she will give him her house in exchange for her own murder. Santo runs away, leaving Seconda alone in her despair.
  
  The only link she has left with the outside world is the repetitive and disconcerting visits of a little girl who attacks her from the outside, pushing her to the brink.
  
  In order to feel protected, Seconda wears her blue suit and goes out, walking in the streets of her city in search of her freedom, until she confronts her own demons that she will have to face.
  
  A tough and determined anti-super heroine, she will achieve this with her own resources.
