Eighteen years old, full of life and creativity, a talent still waiting to find its direction: this is Giorgia. She's burning to finish her final year of art high school and escape the provincial town where she grew up — the same town where Ludovica has retreated to study at the Academy of Fine Arts. At twenty-three, Ludovica already knows what she wants: to become a set designer. Brought together through Giorgia's brother, Davide, the two will discover the unpredictability of fate — forging deep friendships, falling into unexpected love, and kindling dreams of escape amid a colourful caravan of travelling performers on the shores of a lake. They will find the courage to face the consequences of their choices… because no one is an island, and every action, for better or worse, sends ripples through the lives of all those around us. A journey toward adulthood that touches on the hopes, fears, struggles, and joys of every coming-of-age story.

Inspired by the true story of Giorgia Benusiglio.
