Plot Summary:
Shut inside their cars, two women face off in a silent duel that is fought out in the intimate violence of their stares.

For, as in every duel, it is a question of life or death... It’s a Sunday afternoon. The sirocco is blowing pitilessly in Palermo when Rosa and Clara lose their way in the streets of the city and end up in a sort of alley: Via Castellana Bandiera.
