Anchorless
During a trip to Brazil in 2022, Augusto (15), an introspective and dreamy young man, becomes enchanted by Antônio (16), a magnetic and unpredictable boy from Belém. Amid the heat of the World Cup and the waters reflecting a fleeting encounter, a fragile connection is born, stretching across distance when Augusto returns to Italy, turning desire into obsession. While Augusto loses himself in idealizations and the emptiness of delayed responses, Antônio continues his life between parties, friends, and fleeting loves. What begins as a promising romance crumbles under the weight of time, silence, and the things that were never said. As the years pass, Augusto is forced to face an inevitable truth: some loves do not belong to the future, they exist only in memory. An intimate and visceral portrait of love, loss, and growth, Anchorless delves into the fragility of first feelings and the pain of learning that not every story is destined to last.
