Alice, Lucia, Hana, Fliutra and Giselle are single mothers with serious drug addiction problems. They are being treated by the Comunità Aurora in Venice and follow a strict therapeutic protocol, which also provides for outdoor activities such as trekking and climbing; revitalising experiences, a way of interrupting the routine and experiencing powerful emotions. It is here that they meet Massimo, a climber and educator who will accompany them in this adventure. A little at a time, the relationship with the mountains becomes more intense, and from simple excursions they move on to climbs, with surprising results.
