“In a time of revolution, some things remain eternal”

ComedyDrama

Teenage problems intertwine during the occupation of a high school in Rome. Silvio—much like his peers desperate to lose his virginity—wants to make his move on the girl he likes, despite her being already his friend's girlfriend and not knowing that her best friend harbors feelings for him—while clashing also with his parents, onetime Sixties radicals who look down on the kids' aimless political commitment.

VIBE

A tender, bittersweet look at young love and burgeoning adulthood amidst student protests. It captures the messy, intense feelings of youth, set against the backdrop of Rome's vibrant streets. A nostalgic, slightly melancholic journey.
