Groenlandia Film for Netflix
Turin, end of the XIX century. A sentence of the Court of Appeal of Turin declares Lidia Poët’s enrolment in the register of lawyers illegitimate, thus preventing her from practicing the profession just because she is a woman. Penniless but full of pride, Lidia finds a job at her brother Enrico’s law firm, while preparing an appeal to overturn the conclusions of the Court.
With a gaze that goes beyond her time, Lidia takes care of the suspects by seeking the truth behind appearances and prejudices. Jacopo, a mysterious journalist and Lidia’s brother-in- law, passes information and guides her into the hidden worlds of a magniloquent Turin.
