Based on the novel by actor Fabio Volo (here in the lead role), director Massimo Venier's winning nod to classic American romantic comedies follows 30-something manchild Giacomo (Volo), freshly dumped by his exasperated girlfriend. In order to dodge the unwanted advances of his boss' daughter, Giacomo invents an imaginary relationship based on an eye-contact flirtation with a young woman he sees daily on the subway, calling her Agnese. When "Agnese" actually speaks to him one morning, revealing herself to be Michela, a romantic cynic moving to New York the following day, Giacomo finds himself in quite a predicament. He convinces Michela to spend four days in Gotham with him, but will the love affair last after the trip is over? An official selection of the Turin Film Festival. In Italian with English subtitles. Discussion between films with director Ivan Cotroneo (KRYPTONITE).
