A girl picks up a gun Smith & Wesson 9 millimetres and walks the whole town to shoot to the guy that, the previous evening, on the Holy Friday of Passion, obliged her to suffer a violence. In order to regain her private body, she's obliged to do it publicly, to throw it to the crowd, to take on herself her sexualized body from men and from society, the society of a little Italy convinced of an authomatic progress and endlessly leaning to the '80s. A contemporary theatre play about such a simple but also terrible story.
Oscar De Summa, marvellous soloist, with the Trilogy of province made his town of origin, in the province of Brindisi, Erchie, a metapohor of the world, taken at the debut of the '80s [...]. An enlightened story by a great actor.
