    • Synopsis
    • A prime number is a solitary thing: it can only be divided by itself, or by one; it never truly fits with another.
      Alice and Mattia also move alone with their personal tragedies. As a child Alice’s overbearing father drove her to a terrible skiing accident. When she meets Mattia, he reveals to her his terrible secret: as a boy he abandoned his mentally-disabled sister to go to a party. When he returned, she was nowhere to be found.
      These irreversible episodes mark Alice and Mattia’s lives forever, and as they grow up, their destinies seem irrevocably intertwined...
