Spiritismo

In the languid twilight of post‑war Italy, a woman named Elena, once the radiant consort of a modest railway clerk, abandons her domestic sanctuary for the reckless allure of a charismatic libertine, Marco. Their illicit liaison culminates in a clandestine departure, only for tragedy to strike: a runaway train collides with a freight car, and the press declares Elena dead. Grief-stricken, her husband, Antonio, retreats into a world of mourning, his heart a mausoleum of unspoken yearning. Yet Elena, haunted by remorse and determined to reclaim the love she abandoned, concocts an audacious ruse—she masquerades as a spectral apparition, haunting the very chambers she once filled. By feigning a ghostly presence, she hopes to coax Antonio into confronting his sorrow, to forgive the transgression that tore them apart, and to resurrect their fractured bond through the catharsis of supernatural illusion.
