Ammiraglio: From the Diaries of a Mistress

After an episode of breast cancer and reconstructive surgery, Sara, a professional singer, rediscovers her femininity. While she continues to make her dreams come true in the world of music and theatre, a new man comes her way. The love that Sara experiences with Giulio is a victory over life for her. It also becomes an exercise in tolerance and self-reliance, in letting go and continuing to see the essence, because Giulio turns out to have a family abroad. Giulio and Sara have a passionate, erotically charged relationship, in which the strict military life and the turbulent artistic existence sometimes have difficulty merging. Will this impossible, but intense and meaningful love between them last?
