Shun Li And The Poet (Io Sono Li) (15)

Shun Li works long hours for meagre pay in a textile workshop not far from Rome in order to secure the necessary funds and documentation to bring her son to Italy. She is hopeful of being reunited with her boy but then suddenly, she is transferred from the outskirts of the capital to the remote island town of Chioggia, where she secures a new position as a tavern bartender. In this close-knit community, Shun Li catches the eye of Slavic poet and fisherman, Bepi.
