Synopsis
In a deserted rural road, a lone woman waits for her friends who rescue her in a camper van. Embarking on a journey, they share intimate conversations, confronting the complexity of the female universe in the 21st century. As the day progresses, reality blurs with dreams, raising the question of the nature of their own existence. Amidst uncertainty, they return to "reality". Was it just a dream or a profound connection among them?
The symbolism of the van, named Penelope, suggests a journey of self-discovery and perhaps even a metaphorical return to life.
