    • Synopsis
    • A traumatic event—a suicide attempt—creates a rift in the family’s everyday life. Their lives fundamentally change, as if they are waging a war invisible to everyone else. The film is reduced to the most acute, to a short time span and a clear situation that can be put in a nutshell: save the loved one. The source of the story is autobiographical, it is addressed in the film and highlighted by the fact that the author/director plays himself.
