CLOSING FILM AT SIC@SIC VENEZIA 2024

Sunday night. Alex is an ultras, his team has just lost a game and he returns home empty-headed. He lives with his grandmother in the absence of his parents and sells Rivotril tablets to make some money. It’s an evening that doesn’t take off, Alex goes down to the basement of the building, to a cellar where several guys are. A rap battle is in progress. Nemy is a girl with refined rhymes who dances confidently and sinuously. She notices Alex and seeks his understanding. Together they cross the night in a stolen car. Two solitudes that recognise each other. Their bodies brush against each other in what seems to be the beginning of a love story.
Domenica sera. Alex è un ultras, la sua squadra ha appena perso una partita e lui torna verso casa con la testa vuota. Vive con la nonna in assenza dei genitori e vende pastiglie di Rivotril per tirare su qualche soldo. È una serata che non decolla, Alex scende nel seminterrato del palazzo, in una cantina dove si trovano diversi ragazzi. È in corso una battle rap. Nemy è una ragazza dalle rime ricercate che balla sicura e sinuosa. Si accorge di Alex e cerca la sua intesa. Insieme attraversano la notte a bordo di un’auto rubata. Due solitudini che si riconoscono. I loro corpi si sfiorano in quello che sembra l’inizio di una storia.
