Synopsis

A bus to Kiev leaves Rome every week to arrive at its destination after three long days. The women that we "Europeans" call "caregivers" are the travellers, a journey made up only of images that tells their experience: the detachment from their land and their ties, to come to Italy. The story we want to tell is the story of women, of a land, of a nation. Women who come to take care of our elderly, telling them about them as a second family.
