Moving between postwar Italy, Rome, and Capri, the story intertwines desire, jealousy, and self-deception. Built around letters and confessions, it sharply traces emotional distortion and social masks.

A story of letters in which love and jealousy become tangled, then unravel in the light of Capri.
