Synopsis
Sally joins a dream summer trip to Sicily with her childhood bestie Poppy, hoping to re-connect before they start university. Confronted with Poppy's volatile new friend Alex, Sally is strangely drawn to the traditional puppets decorating their villa, and the strings that bind the two friends threaten to rip them apart.

'Strings' is produced by students aged 16-20 as part of Project Paradiso, a cross-cultural UK-Italy educational filmmaking initiative from Young Film Academy (YFA). Full details of Project Paradiso can be found at https://www.youngfilmacademy.co.uk/project-paradiso
