Alice is twenty-two years old and has recently been living in the house she inherited from her grandmother in Cagliari's Castello neighborhood. She is lost and restless, invested by a whirlwind of blurred memories of her childhood.

And finally of Silvia's friend, French Julien, with his life punctuated by letters and poems, who had an almost paternal affection for Alice. But Alice did not go to Julien just to take stock of her family; she wants to know if he is her father.
