Overview
It is summer in Milan; the city is quiet, and a mother and her young daughter, Daria and Lia, go about their daily routine. Daria no longer leaves the house and has created a small ecosystem of plants inside the flat. Lia only goes out to do the shopping and to work on her art project inspired by the myth of Demeter and Persephone. It is the images she films outside her home that lead her, little by little, to recognise her own destiny.

A quiet, meditative portrait of a mother and daughter confined to their Milan apartment, where potted plants and art-making become vehicles for understanding separation and self-discovery. The film moves at the pace of summer stillness, letting meaning accumulate through images and myth.
