Synopsis
June 1982, Sicily. While Italians dream of winning the World Cup, two adolescents dream of living their love story without fear. Gianni, 17, is bullied because of his homosexuality, but his life changes when he meets Nino, 16, a captivating and innocent boy. The profound friendship they develop turns into love without embarrassment as they start working together for Nino’s father, shooting fireworks. When their bond is discovered by their families, the consequences are as violent as the times are conservative.
