SYNOPSIS

Giorgio and Marco come from two different worlds: the first is the son of an important lawyer, the second one is a son of a modest family, struggling to emancipate himself from a small provincial town. Both dream of an overwhelming love and above all, for different reasons, they desire to emerge. The force that attracted them will force them to fight to be together. The 'empty' that pushes them towards each other will lead the two protagonists to chase each other, walking balanced on the edge of the same emptiness that attracts them: two boys and an overwhelming and unexpected love.
