SANTA SUBITO

by Alessandro Piva

synopsis

Bari, late 1980s. Santa is just shy of twenty, and, like any young woman, she has her dreams and fears, and entrusts them to her diary. She is a devout Christian who is also hungry for life, and though she wants to become a nun, she intends to graduate from college first, as she and her parents have decided. But someone comes between Santa and her aspirations. A man she met by chance in her parish starts stalking her, sending her rambling, disconnected letters, following her for three long years; no amount of reports to the police will stop him.
