Daniele, Lisa, Sveva and Paolo, are an apparently perfect middle-class family living in a beautiful house in the historic center of Rome. One day the husband empties the closet and leaves the family. The empty wardrobe becomes, for Lisa, the ideal place to take refuge and work through the separation. Sveva, the seventeen-year-old daughter, does everything to get her out, not accepting the bizarre behavior of her mother and the inexplicable absence of her father. Daniele will not return home, but Lisa will be able, thanks to the love of her children and a newfound strength, to take the first step to overcome the pain.
