SYNOPSIS
Ana, Ljuba, Radi, Sihem and Sonia are five women who came to Italy from several different countries. They left their homelands for many different reasons: love, work, curiosity and perhaps even destiny. Each one of them has managed to establish their own professional roles and activities, reinventing themselves and becoming successfully integrated into a totally new environment. Despite their very different experiences and origins, they are all united in their identity as foreigners. Their stories explore themes such as work, personal relationships and family, intertwining and reflecting each other to reveal to us what it really means to create a new identity in another country.
