WINNER: AUDIENCE AWARD, THESSALONIKI DOCUMENTARY FILM FESTIVAL 2012
Luca and Gustav are two young Italians who over the past few years have witnessed the exodus of many of their friends to Berlin, London or Barcelona. Gustav believes the time has come for them to do the same, while Luca wants to convince him that there are many good reasons to stay.
So, they agree to give themselves 6 months to see if they can fall in love with their country again and embark on an Italian roadtrip in an iconic Fiat 500, in search of emblematic stories, anecdotes, people. Driving around “the boot” in a quest to understand what’s left of the Italy they grew up in, they’ll discover a country much divided, run through with contradictions, but on the edge of significant change.
After their acclaimed documentary Suddenly Last Winter (Winner: Italian Critics Award 2009, Special Jury Mention: Berlinale 2008) Luca and Gustav are back to take stock of today’s Italy, with their signature irony and sarcasm.
