In 1970s Rome, Clara is a nonconformist Spanish expatriate trapped in a loveless marriage to Felice, an unfaithful and abusive businessman, with whom she has three children: Adriana, Gino and Diana. Their eldest child, 12-year-old Adriana, experiences gender dysphoria, while her mother instinctively strives to protect her son by escaping into their imaginations to defuse family tensions. Set against the vibrant backdrop of 1970s Italy, this film is a nuanced portrayal of a dysfunctional family's struggles with identity, love, and acceptance.
