In a regulated system built of boxes, the characters live and work in isolation. They draw, cut, fold and stack paper boxes. As the stacks get too high and finally collapse, the characters find each other and discover life together.

Anna, Francesco and the eight years old Giorgio can't afford a fancy holiday. Afraid of losing their reputation, they decide to fake the vacation. They hide in their own house and they post on social medias photoshopped pictures of the family at the Bahamas. Inebriated by likes and folowers, the parents forget their son's needs.

Daughter and father meet in a white room. An innocent conversation about a deal with the Queen reveals: the apparent emptiness is taken up by a stigmatised diagnosis and decades of silence. What begins as a questioning about the past develops into a sincere dialogue in the present.

Women find themselves in a stage of life where loneliness blows them up like a balloon, tiredness lets them dance in the wind like a leaf, and they even lose control over their own bodies.
