Caramella

Written & Directed by Valerio Narcisi

Plot.

Ilenia is a girl working in a shoe factory in Le Marche (Italy), who dreams of becoming an actress. When she's assigned to a night shift that conflicts with her acting course, she struggles to get anyone to swap shifts. As her frustration builds, she confides in Massimino, a new colleague, about her desire to escape the monotony and pursue her passion.

Caramella is my diploma short film from Officine Mattoli.

All graphics and trailer by Stefano Teodori.
