Cinema at the Institute – LANDSCAPES IN ITALIAN CINEMA (Set in Turin)
Directors: Paolo Vari and Antonio Bocola. Cast: Mimmo Allanprese, Joel Bossi and Andrea Canesi. Italia. 2004
In the southern suburbs of Milan, two friends Claudio and Manuel, who keep meeting each other in the square where they grew up, bring forth two different life-styles: the first has a regular and under-paid job, while the second lives as a drug-pusher. In the backdrop of social and racial tensions that bring to light all kinds of violence, the two friends would eventually face their feelings about a girl who breaks into their lives. The two directors narrate a peripheral microcosm where the residents, donning the mask of aspirations to preserve and improve relationships, reveal their own discomforts and prejudices for immigrants.
