In the late 1960s, Milan was a cultural melting pot, bursting with energy and creativity that flowed through its streets and alleys.
The city’s squares were alive with voices, music, and vibrant colors, all mingling with the aroma of freshly brewed coffee. The streets were animated by young idealists, artists, and intellectuals, all seeking new forms of expression and fresh perspectives on life.
Its neighborhoods throbbed with life: from the upscale shopping streets in the Quadrilatero della Moda to the literary cafes of Brera, and the lively trattorias in Navigli, where flavors and languages from around the world came together. Milan was a crossroads of cultures, a melting pot of ideas and traditions blending to create a unique and vibrant social fabric.
In this city, the lives of its people pulsed with an intensity that permeated every corner. Intrigues, passions, clandestine relationships, and secrets intertwined in the urban fabric, much like those surrounding Francesca.
