Sylvia is the mother of Dove. Despite this name chosen for the peace it inspires, Dove is not the wise child Sylvia dreamed of. Dove has a character of fire. A devouring energy. Sylvia, on the contrary, is introverted; she needs silence, solitude. Control. But the force of Dove constantly threatens her balance, forbids her any rest, and ends up overcoming her. Today, Dove is twenty years old, and all is well. She is a blossoming young girl, a festive and sporty student, who is getting ready to enter the police academy as she has always dreamed. Sylvia has prepared everything to make her birthday party perfect. But as the day passes, her thoughts wander. The past resurfaces: the sweet moments and the laughter, but also the tantrums and the screams... Then that terrible memory of “the accident” when Dove was four. Until a shadow interferes in this sunny day and makes reality tremble...
