Film description
In Venice, beyond gondolas, canals where tourists come and locals go, there is a parallel world where teenagers pimp up their motorboats, customizing them with dazzling LED lights and powerful stereo systems, turning their barchini into tokens of coolness and virility. Two of these boys will risk their lives in one psychedelic race, chased by police toward the heart of Venice. The decline that erodes the relationships, environment, and habits of a rootless generation unfolds against the backdrop of timeless Venetian landscape, in a film that began without a screenplay and developed over four years of quiet observation by a master of contemporary documentary.
