Shot in Rome, Latina and Vicenza, Mancino naturale focuses on universal human themes, such as family dynamics, love, guilt, redemption and more specific issues like passion for sport, economic hardship. The heart of the story is, however, the relationship between mother and son. Most of the film was shot in Latina, the main setting, in bars, on the central COS field and in the Nicolosi neighbourhood, where Isabella lives a modest, frustrated existence with her son.
The final scenes were shot in Vicenza, a city dear to Paolo Rossi, idol of the young main character and, like him, the owner of a formidable left foot. Locations included: Menti stadium, thanks to a collaboration with the Vicenza football team, piazza dei Signori, the forecourt of the train station, some streets in the centre and the Villaggio del Sole neighbourhood.
