DOCUMENTARY, ITALY, 84 min, in post-production
DIRECTOR: Rocco di Mento
PRODUCER: Valeria Venturelli, Filmuniversity Babelsberg KONRAD WOLF

A young man meets a young woman and both fall for each other. A house is built, children are born, the fairy tale story of boundless love takes its course. A grandson sets out to explore the myth of his grandparents’ romance and tries to honour his deceased grandfather on film, assisted by all the surviving relatives. Not an easy undertaking when things may not have been exactly as the family tradition would have it.
