The short movie has been the starting point of the entire project.

Produced with the Patronage of Emilia-Romagna Region and Municipality of Parma along with the support of the Mic – Italian Ministry of Culture, the short, written by director Filippo Cavalca with screenwriter Irene Russo, has been starred by the promising Maila di Vincenzo and Rausy Giangaré – one of the most recognized and awarded Italian actress of the season – among a blend of celebs and young debut talents (some of them affected by the syndrome).

The shoot was entirely set in the legendary Teatro Farnese in Parma, filming location for the second time, after Zurlini’s masterpiece ‘The Girl with the Suitcase’ (1961), starring Catherine Spaak.

After an Honorable mention at the Sound & Vision Film Festival in New York, last September and a nomination as “Best Film” at the Fellini Film Festival 2023, the film became available on Amazon Prime (US and UK) and Vimeo-On-demand, achieving a significant amount between  purchases and rentals.
