Facciamo tutti centro “is a story about everyday extraordinary people, with silent narration, a revolutionary realist and a relentless dreamer enthused about the future”, according to a statement released by the production team. It’s a story about the love and friendship between 3 children – Gollum, Frank and Nina – who are looking for their place in the world, for freedom, and for affirmation of their own uniqueness, of their way of experiencing reality and of an anarchic love in a romantically rendered Milan, a city of dreams and adventure for those like them who live outside of the outer circle, in commuter towns, but it’s also a city of harsh and complex realities which people are forced to contend with. The film’s three incredibly young protagonists are played by newcomer Gabriele Monti alongside Samuele Teneggi (seen this year in Kidnapped [+lire aussi :
