In a decadent Italian neighborhood in the 1980s, Maria, a twelve-year-old girl known as 'Malacarne,' struggles not to submit to the harsh rules of her environment. Her only support is Michele, the youngest son of a rival family, with whom she develops a friendship that transforms into an impossible love. This moving story explores themes of friendship, love, and the difficult reality of life in southern Italy, reminiscent of neorealist films and Elena Ferrante's saga.
