In Vermiglio, a high mountain village of the Italian Alps, the Second World War looms; its1944 and the village faces a distant, but constant, threat.

When refugee soldier Pietro arrives in the village, his presence disrupts the dynamics of a local teacher's family when he's drawn to the teacher's daughter Lucia romantically. As the film unfolds over four seasons marking the end of the war, the couple's relationship leads to an unexpected fate.

Maura Delpero's beautifully-made drama explores complex family dynamics, and uncovers the hidden depths of lies and secrets in what is apparently an idyll in the mountains.
