Stefano is a social worker who puts on plays featuring the disabled and people with mental disorders. It’s rough going, at times. But the show must go on, right? Yes – by going backwards. The rehearsals with “actors” Elisabetta, Luigi, Alessandra, and Daniele are alternated with workshops where Barbara, Cinzia, Daniele, Mario, Marco, Rosaria, and Benedetta explore their dark sides through theater, bringing to the table their ideas, memories, autism and other syndromes; their imagination, their joys and anxieties and even psychoses, in a whirlwind of art and disabilities. They make progress moving backwards, guided by Stefano, who takes it all in, stimulating them, involving them, and showing he is less invulnerable than it first seemed.
