On the outside, Nina is just the nice neighbour from across the street, but for Madeleine she is the love of her life. For years, the two have been in a secret relationship and dream of starting a new life together in Rome. But Madeleine cannot bring herself to tell her family the truth. For her grown-up children, she is the self-sacrificing widow who mourns her husband. So the love of the two women remains hidden and the secret sneaking across the corridor between the flats their daily routine. But then an unexpected event causes the doors to remain closed. Nina has to risk everything to get through to Madeleine. Director Filippo Meneghetti describes a great love in secret in an authentic and sensitive way. Martine Chevallier is convincing as a timid family mother who bows to social conventions, while Barbara Sukowa shines as an energetic fighter who is willing to put everything on the line for love.
