MEJ Film Festival Official Selection. Andrea is a strong girl. Those who have tried to fall in love with her have found themselves with broken bones and not just metaphorically. She lives with her grandmother in Baggio, in the suburbs of Milano, a place where once crime thrived. Her children, who were once the "zanzas", go to university and spend time on smartphones. Guys with clear ideas, determined to conquer their slice of the world. Andrea's phone is an old Motorola, with a display where she barely can read the caller name. Andrea doesn't want to conquer anything. She just wants to be left alone. She's good at her job, she's the fastest, the best. She delivers flowers and plants: not a mind-boggling job, but full of pitfalls. Ali is a simple guy - some could call him dumb.. (Read the director;s full description on platform) Directed by Federico Rizzo.
