On December 1, 2024, during Fiorentina vs. Inter, Edoardo Bove, one of the brightest young talents in Italian football, suddenly collapses on the pitch. In a matter of seconds, time seems to stand still: for him, for those around him, and for the millions of people watching in shock. It marks the beginning of a profound rupture, not only physical but existential.

This documentary follows Edoardo in the months after the event, accompanying him on an intimate and unpredictable journey. For the first time in his life, the path that seemed already written out is suddenly interrupted. The future is uncharted territory:

Will he play again? Will he still be able to play in Italy? And, above all, who is Edoardo beyond football?
