A Journey on the Screen
A group of musicians walk across Basilicata from the Tyrhennian to the Ionian Sea. Their leader is Nicola, a math professor played by Papaleo, and their destination is the festival at Scanzano Jonico. The musicians are joined by a reluctant journalist played by Giovanna Mezzogiorno. Alessandro Gassman, Paolo Briguglia are also part of the strong cast together with singer/songwriter Max Gazzè in a film role for the first time. As they travel, each character learns, develops and begins to find his or her own path through life.
