L’osso del cuore

Italy, 1976. A military regime is in place – a dictatorship with zero tolerance towards dissenters. Anyone could end up in the government’s blacklist, and everyone must watch their steps.
Casa Libertà is the place where the regime sends a specific sort of prisoners – the ones who are ‘defected’. They are mostly kids with health issues, or contesters who don’t represent a real threat. They are the freaks, and Asma is one of them. She grew up in Casa Libertà, convinced she will never be loved.
But when she meets Esodo everything changes. Everyone thinks he works for the government, but there’s so much people don’t know about him. Esodo and Asma will create a bond that goes beyond all rules.
L’osso del cuore is an epic love story in a dystopian yet scarily familiar new world.
