This is the story of two weak women, who managed to become themselves only after an incredible effort., endless compromises, and numerous errors of perspective. They took the time they did and made the mistakes they did. They paid for them all, they realized it, and they wept. After all, they had no choice, or they simply weren't capable of recognizing the opportunities that, from time to time, could have snatched them away from the inevitable. Everything they achieved was in the name of their wounds, and above all thanks to them. Therefore, they have no regrets.
This is the story of two women so strong that they know how to wait for the right time to see their desires mature.. Who, between life and death, moment by moment, always tried to choose the path closest to life. Who willingly allowed themselves to be led into various prisons, trying to transform them one by one into gardens. Sometimes they succeeded, many times they didn't.
Today they are free. Almost forced to consciously choose happiness. Just when, perhaps, they no longer expected it.
