Michele Casali is a middle-class professor in Fascist Italy who teaches at the same high school attended by his only daughter, Giovanna. A shy and sensitive girl, her insecurities are only magnified by Michele's overprotectiveness—reaching a point of no return.
A suffocating atmosphere permeates this Italian drama. The stifling grip of paternal control creates an unbearable tension, making every interaction feel fraught with unspoken anxieties. It's a deeply uncomfortable, yet compelling, study of familial bonds gone awry.
