Beschrijving
This is a short story of the last ten days of Alice, a single Albanian woman in her mid-thirties—struggling between the shadows of her past and the hope of a future she barely dares to imagine. Tired of her own fear, shame, and chronic pessimism, she quits her job and escapes to Rome, seeking a spark to reignite her will to live—and to love.
There, she meets Huang, a young Chinese man who might just be the beginning of something new. But is it too soon to fall? Can one night turn into a future?
Laced with dry humor, lyrical grace, and quiet moments of heartbreak, this short story is a tender portrait of a woman reclaiming her faith, her strength, and perhaps, love itself. In order to move forward, Alice must tame her tongue, challenge her beliefs, and—above all—choose love.
