- Synopsis
- Eugenia, 17 years old, wants to leave Venezuela, a country in chaos and general crisis. To obtain the coveted European passport, she follows the trail of her unknown Italian grandfather, on a 500 km road trip with Luis, an intriguing and inaccessible young man, with whom she lives an ephemeral and tragic love of youth, sealed by the promise of a date in Rome, 13 years later. Eugenia, now an adult, is torn between fulfilling that promise or not. A story of the Venezuelan diaspora scattered around the world. A celebration of memory. A journey that explores nostalgia, uprooting and the complex and unpredictable search for happiness.
