Is there true friendship between women?
Myrsini and Annie will meet to prove the greatness of female friendship! Myrsini, an art conservator, amateur painter, romantic and dreamer who lives through colors, will meet Annie when almost half of her world has collapsed. Annie is blind, yet she lives life to the fullest. Her intuitive ability will lead Myrsini to discover her personal ‘color blindness’ and a new world with true colors… After their meeting, their lives will experience unexpected developments that will test their human endurance, situations that only life knows how to create, surpassing the imagination of even the most ingenious director! A catalytic figure in these trials of pain, love, and death is Harilaos, leaving an indelible mark.
