It is 1997 and the twenty-three-year- old Soledad Rosas leaves Argentina and her conservative family to start a new life in Italy. Soledad moves to a squat house
in Turin where she meets Edoardo Massari, with whom she starts a relationship. Happiness does not last long and in 5 March 1998 the two are arrested and charged with terrorist attacks against the high-speed railway line under construction.
The situation pushes them towards a point of no return. In her debut feature film as a director, Agustina Macri takes inspiration from Martín Caparrós’s novel to tell the troubled story of a young woman who tragically becomes the symbol of Italian anarchy.
