(Under suspicion for a crime of passion
aggravated by triviality)
Synopsis
English
Giulia is ready to spend a weekend with Lucio. However, as she reaches the villa where they are supposed to meet, she doesn’t find him, but three unknown women instead. They are Lucio’s other lovers who, just like her, have received the same text message from him two days ago. The man is unreachable and they keep asking themselves one question: why did he want to bring them there?

Sono le altre amanti di Lucio che, come lei, hanno ricevuto lo stesso messaggio due giorni prima. L’uomo è irreperibile e tra di loro serpeggia una sola domanda: perché ha voluto riunirle lì?
