Remo, once a famous musician, now lives in regret and in the shadow of his former glory. After years in London, he returns to Rome with Harry, the only friend he has left, carrying with him the weight of losing his wife and daughter. His return is marked by apathy, until Oreste, a seasoned producer, pushes him to get back in the game: he must take part in the Song Festival, the one event that could restore his success and artistic dignity. But Remo no longer has a voice nor inspiration—until, in an underground club, he is struck by the hypnotic voice of Laura, a young singer with raw, powerful talent. Their encounter is turbulent, but Remo is convinced she is the only one capable of making him great again. Aura, a single mother with a life marked by hardship, reluctantly accepts Remo’s proposal to turn her into a star. Under his strict and often ruthless guidance, she begins an exhausting training journey, full of sacrifice and tension. As her voice grows stronger, her bond with Remo also becomes increasingly intense, teetering between admiration, dependence, and conflict. Their relationship evolves into an intense and suffocating love story, where desire intertwines with the need for control. Aura becomes the center of the maestro’s growing obsession, as he shapes her according to his vision, convinced that winning the Festival is the only way to redeem his own life and become someone again. Once they arrive at the Festival, the tension between them explodes. Aura is forced to confront the weight of Remo’s expectations and her own desire to assert herself with her true voice. On stage, with an extraordinary performance, she breaks free from his shadow and wins over the audience with her authentic voice. As the hall erupts in applause, Remo realizes he has lost everything: the Festival, his creation, his last chance at redemption. Aura, finally ready to follow her own path, leaves him behind without looking back. One year later, Remo is a transformed man, engaged in a new artistic and personal journey. By his side is Unica, a young blind musician with whom he is collaborating on a film soundtrack. As their notes intertwine, the music once again takes center stage, now as a symbol of deep change: the past no longer defines him, and his art—finally free from obsession—finds new life in cinema, a medium capable of turning sound into pure emotion.
