An absence that becomes presence to the point of pathology. Luca Erra, the protagonist, will have to learn to live with the ghosts of a relationship with young Giacomo Serio gone wrong. A love story born in the swamp of human relationships without balance and outside the normally accepted social canons. A love story that becomes contaminated, and disfigured until it turns into a “game” between perpetrator and victim with a tragic epilogue.
