Lila Cerullo, born in 1944, the shoemaker's daughter who never left Naples all her life, disappears at the age of 66, and all her belongings and documents disappear, after she even removed herself from all the photographs in which she appeared with her son. In typical exaggeration, she fulfilled her desire to evaporate and erase all the life she had left behind - and the act greatly upset Elena Greco, the daughter of the janitor in the municipality, her age and her soulmate for almost 60 years. As a kind of revenge, Elena, who is already a writer, sits down to write every detail of the story of the two, facing each other, throughout the years.
