Gabriele is a divorced dad who owns a music store and is completely focused on taking care of his 10-year-old daughter Sofia who spends time with both parents. One day he bumps into his old friend Mara who - for the first time since his separation - reignites his desire to be in a relationship. There is only one problem, Mara hates children!
Acting
Fabio De Luigi's exasperated dad faces are genuinely award-worthy.
Writing
Mara's child-hatred is refreshingly unsoftened, not quirky-cute.
Production
The cramped music store becomes a character in itself.
Director
Guido Chiesa
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
