There's nothing Claudia Cardinale hates more than staying still, but suddenly she's had to do exactly that. She broke her foot on holiday in Tunisia and has since been holed up in her Paris flat. Searching to find anonymity, she decides to go to Almeria, Spain, a place with great memories from the past. Her path crossed with Mila, a 30 years old eastern European woman on the run from her violent husband. Both stumble upon a ghost town in the middle of the desert, a surreal landscape that once served as the setting for countless spaghetti westerns, whose inhabitants remain dreaming of big cinema. When Mila takes a job as a housekeeper for the local eccentric, she soon discovers that she is working for none other than Claudia Cardinale. As the two women embark on a friendship, they find the strength to face the demons, both past and present. Add to the mix a lovesick cowboy vying for the young woman's lonely heart and a local mystic eager to lead them out of the desert. You've got a romantic comedy thriller that's a homage to cinema.
