It's 1978. Ponte, a small community in Northern Italy: peaceful woods, discarded rubbish, a closed-down factory. An unbearably hot summer like many others, wilted flowers and trips to the waterfalls. Elia Furenti is 16, living in a secluded house with his parents, a life so unremarkable that even its moderate unhappiness has been accepted as normal. That is until the day the beautiful, damaged Anna returns to Ponte and firmly propels Elia to the edge of adulthood. But then everything starts to unravel.

The story of Brenda—a young girl who faced a childhood marred by divorce, abuse, and the harsh realities of life on the streets—serves as a beacon of hope for us all. Within the chapters that unfold, you will witness the unfolding of a life marked by turmoil, but also defined by strength, growth, and the pursuit of a brighter future.
