Description

1944. In Vermiglio, a mountain village high in the Italian Alps, the war casts its shadow over daily life, even though it remains far away. The arrival of Pietro, a deserted Sicilian soldier, disrupts the dynamics of the otherwise peaceful village—especially within the family of the schoolteacher. Lucia, the eldest daughter, feels deeply drawn to the stranger. Over the course of four seasons, we witness the thick layers of snow melt, love blossom, and peace spread across Italy. But while the rest of the world slowly emerges from tragedy, the family faces one of its own.
