America
Synopsis
Claudio was born in Greece, raised in Venice, married to Taranto, and it was in New York that he was murdered after having pursued the American dream for twenty years. Giacomo Abbruzzese reconstructs his grandfather's story, immersing us in the New York of the 1960s, with Billy Joel's sounds and a gangster movie atmosphere.
Through the testimonies and memories of his relatives, on both sides of the ocean, we discover a mysterious, complex character, perpetually on the run. It is the portrait of a man that nobody ever really knew.
