Atlas is the second feature film by Italian filmmaker Niccolò Castelli, and it concentrates all its structure on bringing to life the portrait of Allegra, a young woman who has suffered the loss of her boyfriend and some nearby friends during a terrorist attack. The film is constructed in such a way, due to the use of various flashbacks, that guilt, trauma and mourning join suspicion, mistrust and a xenophobic stance from the main character, prejudices that are gradually being cleared.
