Of Not Such Great Importance

Fiction, 19 minutes

Davide has come to Germany to escape the depressing situation in his native Italy. In Berlin, he takes a job putting up posters. But when the ill health of his mother confronts him with existential questions, he finds himself in a state of uncertainty and indecision. Should he continue to put up posters forever or should he change course? Stay or go back? Order a marinara or a capricciosa?

“A film that without many words, in a cinematic way of using sound and composition, sensitively reflects on the impact of globalization on our younger generations, our relationships, and family.”
