Synopsis

In a valley, naked bodies, scrap, junk, and distorted sounds make an almost apocalyptic scenery, although it is only the result of a rave happened the night before. Walking on the nearby woods, Clara, 24 years old, a girl form the periphery of Rome, hurt and disenchanted with eyes permanently swollen by sleep, bumps into a deer. Hoping to catch that magical moment, the young girl points her phone camera towards the animal, like a hunter that points its own gun. Trying to capture that figure, the phone turns off, leaving her only with a doubt and a beautiful memory. This is how a one-day journey starts, marked by encounters with different characters, a path that becomes a search inside a corrupted memory.
