Delia is eighty-eight years old, she has a husband twenty years her junior and has spent her life travelling around the world, ever since she emigrated from Italy to France when she was only six months old. Heving come back for love, in the 60s she starts working in the textile industry. Soon her products start filling the shelves of European department stores, procuring her huge fortunes and making her one of the first female entrepeneurs of the prêt-à-porter world. But Delia wants more and throws herself into high fashion, without understanding that perhaps the time has come even for her to stop. “As a kid, when I said her name everyone’s mood changed: grandma Delia. She used to come and visit me twice a year, she would appear suddenly and leave after a few hours, always leaving me full of questions: where was she always running off to? Was she really a billionaire? And why at some point did che stop being one?”. (Duccio Chiarini)
