Saverio Desiderato

Three families end up in the same rented house. Throughout the summer, they become friends and rediscover how to enjoy life.

Milan, Italy, 1967. Santo Russo, a boy of Calabrian origin, arrives north with his parents and younger brother to find better living conditions. Due to an absurd misunderstanding and his father's contempt, Santo ends up in prison, where he gets a “true education.” In 1978, he and his friends Slim and Mario embark on a 15-year criminal career, a successful and ruthless spiral of robberies, kidnappings, murders and heroin smuggling.

In the rough outskirts of a southern Italian city, a young man caring for his ailing grandmother is drawn into a series of robberies with an outlaw bound by an ancient code of honor. Between loyalty, loss, and the longing for family, he must decide who he is—and how far he’ll go not to be alone.
