Description
Emilia, an artist, arrives in Rome alone.
What was supposed to be a romantic trip has, with the sudden end of her relationship, become a solitary one. Six days lie ahead. She wanders the streets, surrendering herself to the music, food and beauty of the city. But when she meets John, an American living out a seemingly idyllic existence in Rome, their instant connection challenges how she sees her past, her family and herself.
As their intimacy deepens, can Emilia begin to imagine life anew?
