Le cose giuste

“Silvia Ferreri shows no restraint in her description of the abyss of thinking, of feelings, of the sense of guilt. Her stories become a testament for everybody.” – Il Messaggero –

We only discover what we are truly made of when life puts us to the test, when something breaks and forces us to pick up the pieces, to stand up and start again. Marica, Anna Rita, Cristina, Valeria and Marisa have been challenged by destiny. The existences they had built, made of love, dreams, and family, were destroyed in one fell swoop, leaving them exposed where it hurts the most. All, at some point, were forced to wonder what was the right thing to do. Like Marisa, who put her life and that of her children on the plate to rebel against the \’Ndrangheta. Or like Marica, with hopes hanging by a thread as she waits to become a mother. Cristina, betrayed by her beloved Church, wonders how much faith it takes to really be saved. Then there is Annarita, who with all her love tries to take care of a daughter struggling with her own body. And finally Valeria, who with extraordinary strength takes back every desire that fate would like to deny her. Managed with the same care we reserve for incandescent materials, Silvia Ferreri tells the true stories of these five women to highlight that solid centre, that hidden but unexpectedly powerful point, that reveals who we truly are when confronted with difficulty.
