    • Trieste, north-east of Italy, Adriatic Sea coast.
      Angela is a 50 years old widow. Her husband died due to lung cancer caused by the asbestos dust he breathed when he was a worker. Angela works as a cleaner in the hospital, where she finds out that Francesco, the former employer of her husband, was hospitalized because of a brain stroke. There she meets Francesco's son, who is impressed by Angela's pleasant manners and, unaware of the link between the two, offers her to work as his father's caregiver once he's discharged. As Francesco avoided a conviction, Angela accepts the offer to punish him, but she realizes very soon that she's unable to hurt him. Angela doesn't give up. Swallowed by anger and obsession, she decides to payback Francesco with the same coin she got from him: being condemned to loneliness. She tries to separate father and son, putting at risk everything she has left: her best friend, her daughter, her dignity. Her plan seems working until Francesco's son discovers why she's really there, ruining the castle of cards she built. When everything seems lost, Angela decides to face her enemy for the last time, to say her truth, to reveal the son who his father really is. In the deep darkness Angela fell, she finds out an unexpected truth. If the guilty becomes a victim of himself, revenge can turn in forgiveness and a new beginning can be possible.
