When you lose someone, when you experience their absence, you feel lost. In truth, those who remain will never be the same again.

Losing a loved one represents, for our emotional sphere, a moment of such intense and destabilizing pain that even a part of our own identity seems to disappear along with the deceased. Mind and body are petrified by that excruciating experience.

Roberto, a retired journalist, has lost his wife to cancer and still cannot accept her absence. One day, Roberto wakes up in the hospital following a sudden illness: to welcome him is Anna, a young woman who from that moment on will help him face the mourning for the loss of Luisa. Anna, however, is a figure shrouded in mystery and over time Roberto will find it increasingly difficult to separate her image from that of his dead wife.

Roberto is a man in search of answers, and like any good journalist would do he attempts in every way to learn how to hear Luisa, just as he promised to her on the day of her funeral. But the more he tries, the more he seems to lose touch with reality, for he has yet to realize that in order to connect with her he must first reconcile with the idea that his wife will never come back.
