the beauty in her soul

...based on a true story:

’I can’t see my soul, ’ she said, searching her reflection. ’Wait until you grow up and fall in love. You will know it’s there. The man who will love you will see its beauty.’

Diana grows up in the Italian village of Santa Lucia during the 1950s. Abused by both parents, her childhood slips her by. Repercussions of a love once shared with Paolo affect her entire future.

She marries Marco, unaware of his sexual dilemma. Coping with her mother-in-law’s overriding hatred, an estranged husband, a torrid affair, a demanding job, and a fake family life has extreme consequences. And her existence becomes meaningless when she discovers the truth about her daughter.

Love and forgiveness are behind a locked door. Will someone find the key?
