Plot

edit

The film follows a day of Bonifacio (Sady Rebbot), a young and unemployed designer with anti-social tendencies. He has applied at a job and has an interview for the psychological test in the morning. The rest of the day, he starts to roam around Venice and recalls his past, also having daydreams about his future. Flashbacks reveal his troubled love affair with his former girlfriend Gabriella (Pascale Audret) and his relationships with his communist friends Claudio (Tino Buazzelli) and 'Kim' (Franco Arcalli).
