Film Synopsis

Margo is a world-class cellist with a brilliant career ahead of her, but she throws all this up so that she can marry the man of her dreams and devote herself to loving him with all the fervour a woman is capable of.  But her husband Furio scarcely seems to be aware of what she has had to give up for him.  A talented architect who is steadily gaining a reputation, he is too preoccupied with his latest prestigious contract, to renovate an old building in Italy.  Far from being grateful for Margo's sacrifice Furio has come to resent it.  Now that she knows she is no longer loved, Margo drifts ever nearer to insanity...
