The 1950s. A fabulous Vico Equense is the unrivalled backdrop to an impossible love story. Antonio is a painter, introspective and quiet in character. Marie his wife, a person who arouses complicated feelings, is a muse of simplicity. Ciro, a fisherman. The three are linked by a love judged impossible and wrong; an unconventional love, a love that will bring the characters into sharp conflict with the Catholic morality and conservative mores of the time.
