Margins

Grosseto, 2008. Edoardo, Iacopo, and Michele are young members of a punk rock group. Tired of playing the usual town fairs and festivals, they finally get their chance to open in Bologna for the famous American hardcore punk band, The Defense. When the date is cancelled, the three don’t give up: if they can’t go to Bologna to play with The Defense, then The Defense will come to Grosseto. But the plan turns out more difficult than planned: the paradoxes of provincial life transform every detail into an insurmountable problem, casting doubt on the enterprise’s success, but also on what the three young men care most about: their friendship.
