Escape From Paradise

Genoa, the late 1950s. Lilli is the fifth of seven sisters, but she couldn’t be more different from them. A tomboy who doesn’t like following the rules, she feels suffocated inside the walls of her home. Everything changes the day Lilli meets Ida, a petty thief in the service of a mysterious woman named Salomè, and her gang of Strays. For the first time in her life, Lilli feels truly accepted by this exciting and adventurous new world, while her friendship with Ida gradually transforms into something stronger and more complex. But soon Lilli and Ida will realise that they haven’t found freedom at all – on the contrary, they’ve been caught in a trap. And they will have to come up with an infallible plan to escape.
