Synopsis:

Set in the southeastern region of Apulia (the heel of Italy's boot), this is a tale of two teenage buddies and their encounter with a mysterious young woman. Based on a book by Mario Desiati, the film follows the friendship of lanky outsider, Veleno (Nicolas Orzella), and charismatic tough guy, Zaza (Luca Schipani), as they mull about in a factory 'burb whose main sources of entertainment are either playing soccer or dealing drugs - both of which Zaza does rather well. When the pair witnesses the bizarre Annalisa (Aylin Prandi) attempt to jump off the roof of a church, they stalk her around town until the three wind up in a relationship, each boy secretly hoping to make it with the melancholic and taciturn muse.

New kid Veleno (Nicolas Orzella) is called "faggot" by his peers (though he's not coded as gay). Cool classmate Zaza (Luca Schipani) befriends him, and they become fascinated by Annalisa (Aylin Prandi) after she attempts a very public suicide. Zaza takes advantage of Annalisa's self-destructive promiscuity, yet refuses to accept it when she services others. Meanwhile, he's caught between soccer dreams and drug peddlers.
