Plot Synopsis: Giuliana is a woman who, on the verge of a nervous breakdown, struggles to discover meaning, peace and serenity within the desolate and industrialized town where she lives. Plagued by mental anguish as the result of a past automobile accident, Giuliana first seeks comfort by having an affair with one of her husband's close friends. Ultimately left dissatisfied by the affair, Giuliana returns to her wandering, forever seeking solace from her angst.
