Broadly based on the book The Presentation of Self in Everyday Life by Erving Goffman, the documentary explores the liminal divergence between the social and dramaturgical roles. Through Ettore, a singer-songwriter and the protagonist of the movie, the film studies our need to represent something we are lacking and cannot experience, and the impossibility of blocking this need.
