Storyline:

Italian

Aron è un giovane divo che ha una relazione segreta con Nora, di vent’anni più grande e della cui esistenza sanno solo le persone che gravitano intorno alla maestosa villa in cui vivono. Quella casa-prigione diviene il teatro di segreti, bugie, inganni e ipocrisie. L’avversione che un manager cinico ha nei confronti di Nora sembra essere avvalorata da un passato oscuro che emerge tramite personaggi ambigui, oppressi da dolori inconsolabili e che mettono in bilico gli equilibri sottili tra Aron e Nora.

English

Recovering from a repressed childhood abuse, Nora has developed an indecipherable personality. As if she wanted to relive that ancient injustice, Nora has a secret relationship with Aron, a young orphan who has become a star. Only the people who frequent the prison-house where they live know about the love story between Nora and Aron: a majestic villa, the scene of secrets, lies, deceptions and disturbing presences. Weighing down on the fate of each is an entity evoked by Nora during a nightmare she had as a child and to which she asked to enter that kingdom without salvation.
