A portrait of Italy viewed through its unhealthy relationship with food—a symbol of overabundance and false prosperity, but also of psychological abysses and unbridgeable voids: people eat excessively to forget, to avoid thinking, to avoid curiosity, to avoid being themselves, to replace someone who isn’t there or something they don’t have. Between anger and irony, the text condemns the indifference of which Italy is capable, and which finds its highest expression, its ideal setting, at the table, in front of sumptuous dishes.

Migliore is a story about our times, about people who build their success on ruthlessness, cynicism, and contempt for others. And about the paradox of the despised who, in the face of these people, bow their heads and fascinated let them pass.

Two families who find themselves living under the same roof without even having had the time to get to know each other well.
