Cora (Asia Argento) has been taking care of a rich woman`s dog, walking the pet and playing with him for a nominal fee. Ada, the rich woman, offers Cora more money to follow her confused father (Michel Piccoli). Cora begins to track the wanderings of the father as he hops a train to Rome and continues to travel throughout Rome. The journey brings Cora into conflict with herself and her own issues regarding relationships with lovers, memories of her mother`s suicide, and the reality of her brother`s mental illness. The two unstable traveling companions make for interesting character studies in this Italian drama which earned Asia Argento awards for best actress in her home country.
