Luca (Peppino Mazzotta) runs a filmmaking workshop in a prison which invites a group of prisoners to work together on a project about a crime committed by one of them. The key location for the film was Codigoro (province of Ferrara), with the former prison of via Resistenza, piazza Libertà and other public areas in the municipality.
In the bare spaces of prison, truckdriver (Francesco di Leva) has to reckon with the inexplicable crime he committed, which is now the subject of a workshop project, and with the family members of the victim (Maria Roveran). Framing Beppe’s crime as a story offers the group of prisoners the opportunity to find redemption in team work and so becomes a way for this random collection of outsiders to imagine a new future.
The film was also shot in the park of Delta del Po, near the Stazione Foce in Comacchio, in Darsena and the historical centre of Ravenna and in Bologna.
