Synopsis

Despite having different mothers and an absent father, and never having a relationship, Mario (Stefano Fresi) is forced to travel from Rome to Polesine, in the Venetian countryside, to help his brother Dario (Giuseppe Battiston). The latter, who has always dreamed of going to the moon since he was a child, has ended up in jail after launching a rocket into space, setting a field on fire in the process. To make matters worse, Dario is in danger of being committed to a psychiatric hospital.

Critics' reviews

"A beautiful ode to the dreamers of this world, the films suffers from a central section which seems to come to a standstill (...) The epilogue, however, (...) could rival the very best Spielberg offering."
