Francesca Orsini

The life of astrophysics Margherita Hack, from curious child to unconventional girl at the direction of the Trieste Astronomical Observatory.

Famous pianist, in order to not compromise her career, forcefully refuses motherhood despite the insistence of her partner. However, the obstinacy of that refusal is neither casual nor purely selfish and has roots and motivations back in a tragic past, which she thought had been removed forever and which instead returns to loom forcefully on both of them amidst nightmares and terrible physical and psychological consequences.
