The Last One For The Road (in-person & online)

Filippo Scotti, Sergio Romano, Pierpaolo Capovilla, Roberto Citra

Carlobianchi (Sergio Romano) and Doriano (Pierpaolo Capovilla) are charismatic criminals with big personalities and a treasure trove of stories from their glory days. Unwitting members of the ‘lost generation’ – men born during the 1970s boom times who after the 2008 financial crisis, found themselves in troubling terrain – they survive on anecdotes and bar fare, and their bills are getting harder to pay. If only they could dig up the cash their old pal Genio (Andrea Pennacchi) buried before he left for Argentina… and maybe they will! Right after that last drink.

When they meet sweet, hapless architecture student Giulio (Filippo Scotti), Carlobian and Doriano take him under their grizzled wing and embark on a road trip through the Venetian plains to revive his zest for life.

Loosely pulled from their own experiences, co-writers Francesco Sossai and Adriano Candiago deliver a whimsical, wistful, occasionally melancholic and very charming romp through the Italian countryside, beautifully shot on grainy film.
