Nanni Tormen

A comedy with two italian comic actors

A wealthy community in north-east Italy deals with its immigration fears.

After a fateful encounter in the summer of 1966, the lives of two brothers from a middle-class Roman family take different directions, intersecting with some of the most significant events of postwar Italian history in the following decades.

Studying to become a teacher in 1950s Northern Italy, Sicilian immigrant Pietro is joined by his big brother Giovanni. Pietro shows considerable promise in his field, prompting illiterate Giovanni to take on even the toughest jobs in order to support his sibling's academic pursuits.

Stella is a single-minded girl with in her pocket a plane ticket that'll take her away from her father and the pain of her mother's death. Along with her older brother Iuri, an affectionate but vaguely paranoid boy who can't stand authority, she attends a rave where they meet Bruno, a young man with a violent and dissolute—but at the same time honest and childish—character. The three live together strange adventures, until Iuri finds out that Stella is planning to run away without him.
