When Sergio, a teacher tormented by his past, is transferred to Remis, a secluded village known as the happiest town in Italy, it seems the perfect place for a new start. But Sergio soon discovers that behind the town’s joyful facade lies a dark and disturbing secret. Each week, the villagers gather to meet Matteo, an introverted fifteen-year-old said to be an angel whose embrace can free one of all pain and sorrow. Sergio realizes the village’s relationship to the young man is not as benevolent as it seems...
