action
Timoteo is a surgeon in a Roman clinic. His 15-year-old daughter Angela is admitted to this clinic after a serious moped accident. While the daughter is in a coma , Timoteo thinks back to 15 years ago. He lived with his beautiful wife Elsa, who, in addition to her beauty, is also successful as a businesswoman. Timoteo breaks down his car on the way to her luxurious weekend house by the sea. In an inhospitable suburban area, he looks for help and meets Italia. Italia is a lower-class child who lives in a small house in the middle of a high-rise building landscape. She goes there with him and allows him to telephone. The cheaply dressed Italia is the exact opposite of his wife Elsa. Timoteo is attracted to her. After his car was repaired, he says goodbye to Italia. Believing that he will never see her again, he rapes her. Disturbed by this incident, he and his wife return to her in luxury after the weekend to apologize. From now on they meet regularly and a love affair develops, which develops into a double life for the successful surgeon.
Italia and Elsa both become pregnant from Timoteo during this period. Timoteo knows that the time has come to separate from Italia. He tells her that his wife is seriously ill and that he cannot leave her because of it. When Italia learns that Elsa is also pregnant, she decides to have her child illegally aborted . Timoteo meets Italia by chance in the city and decides to change his life. He only wants to be with Italia, although his wife Elsa is about to give birth in the ninth month. After the delivery, he goes to Italy with Italy and dreams of a new beginning in his life. During the night, Italia experiences complications due to her incorrect abortion. Timoteo takes her to a hospital and operates on her herself. However, her body is so poisoned that she dies after the operation.
Fifteen years later, Timoteo believes that dead Italia is guarding the life of his daughter Angela and that the difficult brain operation actually succeeds and Angela survives.
