A very good film in a difficult moment for the Italian cinema. Thanks obviously to Groenlandia Production, the productor Matteo Rovere and the Director Sidney Sibilla. The film work: work 'cause succeeds to tell a true story, with an obviously adaptation, in a very good way. The sound is also beautiful (After all, how can be the opposite? The film talks about music) with a perfect mix between the soundtrack and the original songs. Also all the actors and actress gifts us a very wonderful performance. I didn't find mistakes in this film. I personally loved the scene post credits, that gived me the answer about the asks that I have placed throughout the film.

Rewind of sound and ideas

The energy to build and destroy Dreams (Actual Vote should be 8-)
After the half-disaster of ROSE ISLAND, Sydney Sibilia manages to come back with a movie that shows again his particular view on the clash between authority and rebellion.
This is, for now, his most "cointained" picture, meaning that, unlike the previous ones, Sibilia builds a very efficient balance between the most euphoric comedy and the more intimate approach to still maintain the realism of the daily life of three common people, and of their highest ambitions with which they marked their spot in History, but without considering the necessary consequences.
The characters are the major strength of the picture, all portrayed in the most diligent and genuine way by the whole cast, catching our interest right because of their ability to go over the limits just to live their more intimate dreams, and because of the evident immaturity they still display in doing it.
This is what lacked in ROSE ISLAND: the paradox between managing to put on a possibly revolutionary act of "rebellion", and the hard clash with the reality around it.
Sibilia doesn't condemn Erry and his wish to spread music, but still doesn't fully justify him either, clearly exposing his auto-illusion in following a "short-cut" that even he can't really understand.
An intriguing tale of little antiheroes who gained and lost everything with the same energy capable to both build and crash Dreams.
