This film exposes the hidden dangers of dating apps driven by the urgent consumption of sex and entertainment. Behind simple profile pictures often hide pathological narcissists and ambiguous characters. Looking for fleeting encounters, they prey on vulnerable users through flattery and deception. In this virtual world, emotional connection is entirely absent. Everyone becomes a mere object of desire in a perverse, addictive game of dominance and submission that detaches users from reality. Ultimately, the virtual realm takes over, leading to a profound depersonalization where human beings are completely stripped of their humanity.

A romantic drama loosely based on the life of Federica Paganelli, one of the first girls in the world to live with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) for over 20 years.
