The film chronicles the vicissitudes of four young adults in two moments of their lives which are in turn linked to two dramatic episodes three years apart. The intervening years see the characters confronted by the usual joys and difficulties of everyday life. However, they also find themselves having to react to a destiny which, every now and again, places a crossroads in our way. The main character is Alan. Around him are his wife, Françoise, his young lover Michela, and Igor, his best friend.
Sinestesia racconta due momenti della vita di quattro giovani adulti che si trovano confrontati con le prove del destino. Alan, sua moglie, la sua amante, il suo migliore amico, vivono le varie sfaccettature che può assumere il quotidiano. Per questo la narrazione si compone in quattro capitoli: uno per personaggio, ognuno ispirato a un genere cinematografico. La trama, basata in larga parte sull’osservazione del reale, affronta con toni diversi (thriller psicologico, commedia, dramma…) i temi dell’amicizia, dell’amore, della disabilità.
