Plot

The De Martino family have always had motor oil and gasoline flowing in their veins: they have been putting together and racing cars for generations. Mario, the head of the family, is forced to give way to his very young and exceptionally talented daughter Giulia.

She is joined by her 40 year old brother Loris, a former driver, totally unreliable, but with an extraordinary sense of trajectories and highly knowledgeable about engines. Together, they will have to return to the track and win, while escaping their demons and learning what it means – and hard it is – to be a family.

Director

Matteo Rovere

Matteo Rovere was born in 1982 and directed his first movie when he was very young, after directing several shorts, among which the multi-award winning Homo Homini Lupus with Filippo Timi. He is also a producer: he produced Smetto quando voglio for Ascent Film, the Pills – Sempre meglio che lavorare, La foresta di ghiaccio, other than several shorts and documentaries like Ritratto di mio padre by Maria Sole Tognazzi.

Trama

Nelle vene della famiglia De Martino scorrono da sempre olio motore e benzina. Preparano auto da corsa e crescono piloti da generazioni. Mario, il capofamiglia, sarà costretto a lasciare il posto alla giovanissima figlia Giulia, un talento eccezionale, affiancata dal fratello Loris, ex pilota quarantenne totalmente inaffidabile, ma con una straordinaria conoscenza di traiettorie e preparazione dei motori. Insieme saranno obbligati a tornare in pista e vincere, fuggendo dai loro demoni e imparando cosa significhi e quanto sia difficile essere una famiglia.

Elle est rejointe par son frère de 40 ans, Loris, ancien pilote de course, peu fiable, mais ayant un sens extraordinaire des trajectoires et bien compétent en moteur des voitures. Ensemble, ils devront retourner à la piste et gagner, tout en échappant à leurs démons et en apprenant ce que cela signifie – la difficulté d’être une famille.
