Synopsis:

Leo is a typical sixteen-year-old: he likes to chat with friends, play foosball, joyride on his scooter and listen to his iPod. School is agonizing to him. Then, a new and 'different' history and philosophy teacher arrives: he encourages the students to live deeply and follow their dreams. Leo feels he possesses the strength of a lion but is held back by a terrifying nemesis: the colour white. Everything in his life that represents deprivation and loss is white. On the other hand, red is the colour of love, passion, and blood; red is the colour of the girl of his dreams, Beatrice.
Eventually, Leo discovers that she has an illness related to the colour white. His fear leads him to dig deep into himself, bleed and be reborn in order to understand that dreams cannot die; he must find the courage to believe in something greater than himself.

Leo is 16. He has wild hair and a habit of dividing life up into colours. Everything he can't stand is white: school, teachers, silence, fear. Everything he loves is red: music on his iPod, his soccer team, the blood in his veins. And the colour of Beatrice's hair… she's the most beautiful girl at school and he watches her from a distance, in utter adoration. Leo's dream is Beatrice. The girl who has leukemia. Do dreams die? Is love any stronger than death?

Leo is an ordinary sixteen-year-old boy. Time he spends at school is a drag, until he meets the new philosophy teacher. This young man is different. He encourages his students to live intensely and follow their dreams. Leo's dream is Beatrice, the most beautiful girl in the school. The girl who has leukamia. Do dreams die? Is love any stronger than death? It's time for Leo to fight and find the strength to believe in something bigger than himself. Based on the Mondadori best-seller novel by Alessandro D'Avenia.
