A sweeping historical novel about the struggle of one woman and one village against war, racism and ecological devastation.
Curòn, 1920

In this new climate of fear and uncertainty Trina works for a clandestine network of schools in the valley, always with the risk of capture. Curòn, 1939

Now married and a mother Trina's life is again thrown into uncertainty when Germany anounces the 'Great choice' and communities in South Tyrol are given the opportunity to move to Germany.

Then one day Trina comes home and finds that her daughter is missing...
