Synopsis
Burt
Burt, a 69-year-old musician with Parkinson’s, has his life turned upside down when a man from New York shows up claiming to be his son. Having always dreamed of being a father, Burt embraces Sammy and invites him to stay for the weekend, where he lives with his grumpy landlord.
The Story of Piera
Piera is a young woman who grows up under the parentage of two extremely original overseers: both her mother and father have incestuous relations with her before they are committed to insane asylums. A special connection, between a mother and her daughter, full of sensuality and complicity, has allowed to portray a family full of fears, rather unbalanced, but nevertheless searching infinite love.
