A Patagonia of the mind
Yuri is a twenty year-old boy who lives a cocooned life with his elderly aunts in a small provincial town in central Italy which is his whole world. At a birthday party he meets Agostino, a wandering entertainer and children's charmer, who promises him the independence that Yuri didn't know he was looking for. Dreaming of the freedom of Patagonia, the two set off on a journey of self-determination that will transform into a frenzy of control and imprisonment. The movie is a reflection on relationships, on how "toxic" love can be and on how much, in the same way, it can help people get to know each other and grow up; it's a reflection on bonds and on freedom, on what it really means to be free; this story of discovery, of sexuality and of their own way of being together, different from all the others, are told in an intense and effective way.
