In a small village in Italy, a young artist with big dreams struggles to find his place in the world. With a boundless passion for painting, César faces his family's expectations, who want him to become a diligent businessman. In the quiet streets of his hometown, César finds inspiration in the faces and landscapes around him, but his ambition drives him to seek new horizons.
One night, César attends a local art exhibition where he meets Livia, a rebellious photographer who challenges the social norms of the time. With her, César discovers a world filled with creativity and freedom, pushing him to question his existence and choices. As his relationship with Livia deepens, he realizes that he needs to follow his own path and fight for his dreams, even if it means leaving behind the life he has always known.
However, the social and political tensions in the country affect the young artist's life. As the shadows of fascism grow in Italy, César is forced to choose: remain in his comfort zone or risk everything for the freedom of expression. This journey of self-discovery will lead him to confront his own identity and the struggle for a future in which art can flourish, while the weight of history begins to dictate the rhythm of his life.
