The Guilt

by Bianca Palmieri Balduini

ECIB Barcelona, Spain

Synopsis

Marta and Sophia are old friends, but their lives have been divided by a dark secret they share. While the secret belongs to their past, it still seems to torment them in the present, so badly that one of them decides to tell the truth. Marta cannot carry the guilt one day longer: she informs Sophia she wants to confess what they have done, regardless the repercussion the truth might have on their lives. Sophia completely disagrees, and will do everything she can to convince her its not a good idea. Maybe one of the girls has more to lose than the other...
