Antonio is 17 years old and has a dream: to be a footballer in a great team. He lives in a small village in the province of Campania, a place where getting away is not always that easy. What makes the situation even more complex is the wonderful Miriam, a kind and gentle, but highly problematical mother, who Antonio loves more than any other person in the world. On top of this there is Carlo, Antonio's father who abandoned them when he was very young, and Miriam is obsessed with the idea of rebuilding her family. All of a sudden life seems to present Antonio and Miriam with a real opportunity: a talent scout looking for promising youngsters to take to the Parma team's Primavera. But there is a high price to pay for every dream. (Cinemax)

Englisch Football is not as important to the plot as it may seem from the annotation of this film. The most significant aspect is the relationship between seventeen-year-old Antonia and his emotionally unstable mother Miriam, who clings obsessively to her former partner, which ultimately proves fatal for her. The protagonist grows up prematurely because of having to care for her, but even that doesn't help to save her from herself. Anna Foglietta's breathtaking performance as Miriam adds a certain touch of rawness to the whole story. (75%) ()
