A police inspector and an orphaned girl embark on a day-long journey through the streets of Naples.
Through the alleys, in a tangle of small events, both tender and sordid, the little girl leads the taciturn and rude inspector on a pilgrimage through a poor, secret, innocent and cursed Naples.
A "childlike" city that, like Domenica, seems to embody the desire to live despite everything, the ability to invent, day by day, a dream, to feel less alone and damned.
It is the dramatic and moving story of two solitudes: the missing daughter and the lost father.
A strong emotional bond is established between the two, and the meeting is an opportunity for both to say a final yes to life.
