Tobia's cafè (Tobia al caffè)

The story is set in the elegant mirrored rooms of the Caffé Quattro Palme frequented by retired military personnel and professors, rich widows and elegant gentlemen. Giuseppe (Roberto Citran) is one of the waiters and he becomes fond of Tobias (Federico Galante), the child of a pair of customers. The bond between Giuseppe and the child becomes stronger as the years go by and survives the deaths of Tobias’s parents. Then one day reality breaks into the refined and otherworldly atmosphere of the caffé when a band of youths start frequenting it and upset the status quo. One of the band is a girl called Annetta (Candice Hugo) with whom Tobias falls in love. The two meet for the shortest time, separate and they run into each other again at the end when the Caffé is in ruins and inhabited by homeless people.
