Kalimera

Something moves from inside Irene's body: stomach ache, food refusal and apathy. The girl is on vacation at her grandmother's house in Puglia. With her is Federico, her partner. Their toxic relationship consists of constant fights in which Irene suffers psychological and sometimes physical violence. Thanks to her grandmother's plots, she will go through a violent transformation, discovering that she belongs to a sinister lineage of women. Her new and at the same time ancient female identity will be liberated by the ritual of tarantism, on the day of Kalimera.
