SYNOPSIS

At eighteen, Maria Enders was successful in theatre with MalojaSnak, she played Sigird, an ambitious young girl with disorder charm who fascinated and led to suicide of Helena, a mature woman.
This role has changed her life.
More than twenty years have passed when, at the peak of her fame, she was asked to receive a prestigious award in Zurich, on behalf of Wilhelm Melchior, the author and director to which she owes her early recognition, and who now lives as a recluse, in Switzerland, at Sils Maria.

But the sudden death of the latter, a few hours before the ceremony, puts Maria Enders against the vertigo of time, that is of a past which she hasn't got away with. And even more when a young director in vogue asks her to play again in MalojaSnake, but this time on the other side of the story, Helena's, on the destruction of who she's built her notoriety.
Caught in the turmoil of a divorce which deprives her of any sentimental support, her only interlocutor is her assistant, Valentine, both the multi task woman and her only friend, even if Maria and Valentine are trying to remove ambiguities of this intimate and exclusive relationship.
But the real threat is rather Jo-Ann Ellis, a very young Hollywood actress with a scandalous reputation and who'll play Sigrid, at once a rival and a disturbing mirror of her youth, which she will have no choice but to deal with.
In order to reconcile with time, with age, with maturity, ending by learning that at all seasons of a life you must conquer freedom, independence and also the strength to be yourself, and sometimes painfully.
