Synopsis:
15-year-old Leo grew up in Germany without a father. When she discovers his identity, she immediately sets out to find him. Her search leads her to a boarded-up beach bar on Italy’s wintry coast where she meets Paolo.
Paolo is overwhelmed and conflicted. He struggles to balance his relationship with his new family after Leo’s sudden arrival. At first Leo just wants answers but soon longs for a place in his life. With no money or plan, she stays in the small town. As they spend time together, Leo and Paolo begin to bond, discovering that they have much in common.
Inevitably, reality catches up with them. When Paolo prioritizes his younger daughter, Leo is left hurt and angry. Tensions rise. A confrontation lays their pain bare, seemingly shattering their fragile connection. Amid the turmoil, father and daughter begin to understand their truths, taking a small but meaningful step toward acceptance.
