The friendship between two Southern Italy kids is tested by their meeting with a young girl who's attempted suicide after failing to get married. Based on the novel "Il paese delle spose infelici" (literally, "Village of the Sad Brides", which is also the original title of this film) this elegantly photographed coming-of-age tale has sensitivity to spare but its stylish, yet understated, attitude doesn't easily win viewers over.

Monica and Mattia are two 18-year-old in love and with many dreams until a tragic event will break this balance.

Luca is a lonely boy. He likes to go swimming in a pool at night when no one is there except silence. Everything goes fine and quiet until one Monday an unknown swimmer named Mia breaks into his own little world.
