Italy, 1997. Clara and Irene, both 17, meet at a summer camp organized by the hospital who treats them. Clara is shy while Irene is untamed - they instantly become inseparable friends. Instead of going back to their families, they decide to run away to a faraway island off the coast of Sicily to live their first summer as young women. They live carefree and dream of love, while recording on VHS their moments together and confronting their fear of the future.


Carlo Sironi was born in Rome in 1983. His shorts ‘Cargo’ and ‘Valparaiso’, were selected in Venice and Locarno. In 2019, Sironi signed his debut feature, ‘Sole’, which premiered in Orizzonti Competition at the 76th Venice International Film Festival and established him as one of the most interesting emerging directors from Italy. ‘Sole’ won the Discovery Prize as Best First Feature Film at the European Film Awards 2020 and was nominated for Best Debut Director at the David di Donatello Awards.
