Roberto, a shy law student in Rome, meets Bruno, a forty-year-old exuberant, capricious man, who takes him for a drive through the Roman and Tuscany countries in the summer. When their journey starts to blend into their daily lives though, the pair’s newfound friendship is tested.
A boisterous, reckless man hijacks a timid law student’s summer for a frantic high-speed tour of the Italian countryside. This kinetic road movie captures the dizzying joy and inevitable hollow ache of a friendship built entirely on momentum.
