With sanitary lipstick. . Filmed for TV tape-valentine was a success at the festival Lucania Film Festival 2014, and the Russian audience presented in the autumn as part of the Russian-Italian film festival RIFF.
From the first seconds in the frame, a close-up of the heart, accompanied by overflows of melodic music. However, the romantic narrative does not have time to begin as the camera moves back and the symbol of sublime feeling turns into a cut piece of meat, and the viewer immerses himself in the dynamics of an ironic plot.
Or rather, four stories that smoothly flow into each other.
Director Giancarlo Fontana temperamentally and succinctly tells stories in which love overcomes all the difficulties of our time. In addition to the traditional theme of obsession with beauty, comparable to Madonna, football, touched in an intriguing way and self-irony over Italian talk shows, the comedy plays the economic crisis, media Faust, speculating on the feelings of lovers, as well as Narcissus, lurking in the bloated body of the current consumer.
The finale properly puts everything in place, and love, of course, triumphs!
