Raffaella che canta, balla e brilla. Che lotta, ride e si commuove. Raffaella che rischia, che sbaglia. Che sceglie, sempre. Ognuno ha la sua Carrà, un motivo per cui volerle bene. È l'eredità più grande di un'artista che, credendo fermamente in sé stessa, ha dato fiducia e ha liberato tutti quanti. Questo libro è un viaggio nella sua vita e nei suoi insegnamenti, affrontato anche attraverso i ricordi di chi ha lavorato con lei e le ha voluto bene. Con un ambizioso obiettivo: prendere un po' della sua indipendenza e leggerezza, e farle nostre.
