content
Andrea is 27, has graduated from university in literature and is looking for a job. Rejected several times, he still runs enthusiastically from one interview to the next. He shares a rented apartment in Turin with his buddy Bart and shares his passion for football. Bart, the opposite of the silent but rather lazy, enjoys the acquaintance of Lucia, a pretty Indian-Neapolitan girl who gives him an insight into his painfully tough love life.
One day Andrea meets Dolores, with whom he falls passionately in love. After learning of Dolores' affair with a producer, Andrea needs the advice of his friends Bart and Lucia.
criticism
The film service writes, "Cut at a fast pace, the comedy throws an ironic spotlight on the inability of a generation to take its own life seriously."
Remarks
The original title of the film is taken from a song by the French group Mano Negra , from the album "Casa Babylon" (1994).
In the film, a competition develops between Andrea and Bart, which consists in outdoing the other with absurd stories they read in newspapers. The more or less believable stories make the film, together with its brilliant dialogues, extremely worth seeing.
In the course of the film other films are cited, such as the Indian "Mission Kashmir", Lars von Trier's "Europa" and the famous "Butch Cassidy".
