Argenio is a retiree who lives a solitary life. Anastasia is a young and beautiful woman who lives by her wits. In a winter Rome, these two characters meet because of the strange Argenio’s mission – to find the owner of an artificial leg that has been forgotten in a public park. This will be the beginning of a journey that will lead the protagonists to a confrontation with their own memories and those of the others – Memory that is lost and is to be refound. Like that absurd leg for which they have to find a home.
