History

Prime numbers are divisible only by one and themselves. These numbers are lonely and incomprehensible to others.

Alice and Matt are both "First", both haunted by the tragedies that have marked them in childhood: a skiing accident for Alice, which has caused a defect in the leg, the loss of her twin sister for Matthew. When, as teenagers, they meet in the corridors of school, they recognize their pain in each other.

Growing up, their fates are intertwined in a special friendship, until Matt, graduated in physics, has not decided to accept a job abroad. The two are separated for many years and will be joined by a sequence of events, to bring to the surface a lot of emotions and never confessed to force Alice and Mattia to address the question of their lives: two prime numbers can never find a way to be together?

THE SOLITUDE OF PRIME NUMBERS is a moving meditation on loneliness, love and consequences of childhood.
