Synopsis: | Lina (given here in Doireann Lalor's translation) begins in a mental home with the name character, played with just the right mixture of self-knowledge, uncertainty and disorientation by Paola Dionisotti, being taken off the medication which has kept her tranquil. The script and Massimo Marinoni's direction certainly suggested the confusion in her mind but also left me confused about what was actually going on, what was real and what not and whether the doctor who had taken over responsibility for her was actually taking her into his own home and exploiting her. Behind it seems to be a sad story of a woman, who may or may not have been a murderess, acting as nanny to a child who in fact is her own daughter given up for adoption but whom she has promised never to reveal is hers | |||||
