1997. Caterino, a simple and rude man, is one of the many workers who work in the Ilva industrial complex in Taranto. He lives in a farmhouse that has fallen into disgrace due to its proximity to the steel industry and in his indolence he shares the dream of moving to the city with his very young girlfriend. When the company top management decides to use him as a spy to identify the workers it would be best to get rid of, Caterino begins to stalk his colleagues and participate in strikes only and exclusively in search of reasons to report them. Soon, not understanding the degradation, he too asks to be placed in the LAF building, where some employees, as punishment, are forced to remain deprived of their usual duties. These workers have no other activity than to pass the time by deceiving him by playing cards, praying or training as if they were in the gym. Caterino will discover firsthand that what seems like a paradise is in reality nothing but a perverse strategy to psychologically bend the most uncomfortable workers, pushing them to resign or be demoted. And that there is no way out for him from that hell. Michele Riondino, in addition to directing the film, stars in it together with Elio Germano, Vanessa Scalera, Domenico Fortunato, Gianni D’Addario, Michele Sinisi, Fulvio Pepe, Marina Limosani, Eva Cela, with Anna Ferruzzo and with the participation of Paolo Pierobon. (Michele Riondino’s debut film – produced by Palomar, Bravo, Bim Distribuzione with Rai Cinema and co-produced with Paprika Films – was previewed at the 18th Rome Film Festival, in the Grand Public section and will be released in cinemas on November 30, 2023)
