They started yesterday at Crotone In The filming de “The trade” by Beppe Tufarulo with Luigi Lo Cascio. Sauro Cantafame (Luigi Lo Cascio) is a lonely man and with a dramatic past. His profession is particular: on commission “adjust” the dead, until they mingle mechanical hearts in their bodies. With his apecar he crosses a violent, lunar, border south, between reality and far -fetched. It will be the meeting with Giocondo, a boy walled in himself but with a mysterious gift, to bring him back to life and feelings, so much so as to face the risk of challenging the criminal deity of Vito la monkey who, in that territory at the end of the world, everything commands and has.
