SYNOPSIS

Two very young brothers, Mimmo and Donata, live a neglected existence, crushed by indifference. Until Donata falls in love with Elia, an adult, a coward. Love is radical, it puts the body at the centre of everything. A neo-realist fable that tells of the search for a new body that is a machine to be used, a land to be plundered, and finally, a servant for love.
