Plot
To live her homosexuality freely, Safia left her family and the Corsica where she grew up. Returning for a summer, she came out to her father, who reacted badly. On the roads of Corsica, Safia runs away and meets Jade. A journey of initiation in which Safia must reinvent her relationship with her native land and learn to live for herself, beyond the gaze and perhaps in spite of those she loves.
