Agnese, a wolf biologist, returns home after a long hospitalization. It is difficult for her daughter Arianna, an introverted teenager who pours out her turmoil through dance, to rebuild her relationship with her mother. Riccardo, husband and father, tries hard to keep the family together. The moon has an occult power over Agnese: her mind begins to wander and her body transforms, while visions of the "god of the woods" invade reality.
