Cuore sacro (English: Sacred heart) is a 2005 Italian film which tells the story of an Italian workaholic businesswoman Irene (Barbora Bobuľová) who experiences the loss of two of her friends by suicide.

Synopsis

Irène Ravelli est une manager qui réussit dans l'entreprise de sa tante. Sur la trace de ses parents, elle rencontre Benny, une gamine qui lui apprend l'altruisme, et elle commence à rencontrer les pauvres gens de Rome. Touchée par la mort accidentelle de la gamine, elle se met en recherche, prend conseil auprès d'un prêtre catholique, mais ne trouve sa voie que dans un altruisme extrême, jusqu'à avoir des comportements a-sociaux (elle se déshabille dans le métro pour donner ses vêtements)... les psychologues seront pourtant formels : elle n'est pas folle...

The film chronicles the life of a woman named Pippa Lee, with flashbacks to her tumultuous past. Pippa Sarkissian was the youngest child and only girl in her large Christian family. Her mother Suky (Maria Bello) was a neurotic mother with an obsessive fixation on her daughter's looks. By her teen years, Pippa discovers that her mother takes amphetamines in order to self-medicate her vast mood swings. She has a confrontation with her mother by taking drugs that results in Pippa leaving home and moving in with her aunt and roommate, who are in a lesbian relationship. After a time, the aunt discovers Pippa participating in erotic photo sessions with the roommate and her friends and banished from that apartment and goes on to live a bohemian life of drugs and working as an exotic dancer. On a weekend jaunt with like-minded friends, she meets a charismatic publisher named Herb Lee who is 30 years older than she is and a romance develops between the young woman and the older man. The couple marry, have two children and later move into a retirement home in Connecticut. Through her marriage, Pippa has become the "perfect wife": loving, supportive, everything to everyone and no one to herself. The couple grow apart; Herb has an affair with one of Pippa's friends and middle-aged Pippa has encounters with a younger man named Chris. After Herb dies from a heart attack, Pippa finally breaks with her life of subservience and refuses to set up the burial, leaving the details to her children. The film ends with Pippa driving off with Chris.
