SYNOPSIS
Why has the rope-walker given up crossing the skies of cities? Why doesn’t he want to fly anymore? Davide has been interviewing him for months, his rope-walker - the subject of his degree thesis – but why has he left the rope he hasn’t understood yet. So this shy, extremely scared young boy, does what he never dared to do: he breaks his oath and asks him. In desrespect of the promise, without worrying of the consequences. And his courage is rewarded with a courageous deed: after years of inactivity, the rope walker goes back to the rope and dedicates to him his most important crossing.

In Rome. The memory of a night spent in the streets of the eternal city, tracing the steps of two young men: Vlad, modern Rumanian prostitute, and Cosimo who has just moved into town.

SYNOPSIS
Gino Pacino is a frail, shabby little fellow, wearing thick glasses and with an oppressive heavy mother.
Guilty of dreaming of making love with Saint Lucia, no less, one day Gino wakes up blind, or at least convinced to be so.
He runs away in the street in his t-shirt, comes across a lot of people, and especially a beautiful blonde girl, who is like as two peas to the saint in the dream.
Or is it her?

EDOARDO DE ANGELIS, born in Naples on August 31st 1978, he spends his childhood in a small village at the foot of Vesuvius which is the most overpopulated town-hall in the world after Hong Kong. Involved against his will in the emigration in the late Eighties, he packs and moves to an inner town 25 km distant. Brought up by three women, he grows up and becomes an excellent water-polo player. At the age of 19 he realises that all his wishes cannot come true but in a world that doesn’t exist in itself and can be made up from beginning to end: cinema. Graduated in Direction at the Experimental Centre of Cinematography and in Advertising Techniques with honours at LUMSA in Rome.
